The Yaris has been an idea for me to toy with but it has a drag coefficient I can't work with so plan to get carbon fibre parts made for the prius with the money. I do 30-40k a year in that prius so it pays
...Yes imperial gallons. I hate using the other prius, it's like driving a normal car. I can get 65mpg from a Ibiza 3cyl!!

You've already made your Prius a 1-seater anyway, may as well go whole hog with the light weight of an Insight...
