Just curious if you were in the market for buying a used car. And wantednto achieve the highest possible mileage. What car would you choose? There are many cars available and I would assume that a light 2 seater car, that is in manual, and is already efficient and gets about 30 miles to the gallon is probably a good platform. What if you want to achieve 70 miles to the gallon?

Some cars would be great and importantly cheap

1. Toyota tercel ive seen manynfor under 1000$
2. Geo metro
3. Toyota paseo. That is what I have. But auto trans which hurts
4. Old Honda insight. Not sure you can get them for less than 1500
5 old Prius?
6. Toyota celica
7. Honda civics
8. Honda Del Sol?
9. Nissan sentra
10. Wvolkswafen TDI. Not sure you can get it for cheap
11. Chevy cavalier?
12. Ford focus
