Yeah, the trunk space is a bit small unless you fold down the back seats. My friend with a BMW Z4 (not exactly a huge car) chuckled at how tiny the trunk area is. But, 99% of the time it's just me in the car commuting to work, etc. and it's totally enough space for me.

The Abarths are pretty cool but do get lower mpg. The Charlie Sheen commercial is amusing. It's on YouTube if you've not seen it.

I am looking at some people's mpg numbers and gasping! I am clearly doing something wrong (even with the Scion) to not get WAY better mpg than I'm getting. :-/ Of course, then again, I'm not willing to ride a foot from the backend of an 18-wheeler to let it break the air pressure for me. :-)
