I'm sure the Aerocivic can hold it's own against a gen 3 Prius and an Insight (new). Even if you lose so long as your close you prove that a 17 year old car with some home made aero modifications can get the same kind of MPG a brand new $20k hybrid can get.

I'll see if I can find the address to write or e-mail the magazine and PM it to you tonight.
Okay, but not just fuel efficiency but also speed. After all, basjoos can get high MPG at high MPH.

Tell Clarkson to bring that big honkin' diesel he drove from Switzerland to Blackpool on one tank.
