Best in my opinion would be the 97-05 Buick Century. 3.1L V6 Auto. My wife's gets close to 30 MPG with no mods, and no FE technique (she salutes my Metro efforts, but does not to worry with it). It is very comfortable and more roomy than any of the imports I have seen. It's well over the 3,000lb. mark and has stock 140HP.

I have recorded as high as 34 mpg before I ever heard of EcoModding, but I have not driven it recently.
