I was going to suggest spending what you might on another set of wheels/tires on a cheap commuter...but I couldn't do it. You already have to sit through a commute, you shouldn't have to punish yourself by giving up that BMW interior to do it economically.

I know DC driving. I grew up there. And yeah, there are places where 80 is what it takes to not get somebody up your tailpipe, shouting imprecations.

At this point, I'm out of suggestions.
