Well, exactly. A Cavalier would put me in a worse boat that a Metro LSi or a CRX HF. In terms of out-of-the-box MPGs, are there any better options than an XFI? I'm certainly open to a CRX HF or a Civic VX, but I'm looking for something to save me some dollars in the near-term without putting a lot of mods into it.
Besides, any money I spend on Aero-modding a Cavalier I could spend on aero-modding a Metro and still end up ahead.
In the long term I'd like to build a <1500lb VW Type 1 based fiberglass kit with a rearmount Renault K9K. But, that's just a dream and a few SolidWorks files right now. I can't keep driving my Outback while I build something like that or I'll never have the money to do so.
