Good question, and I'm not sure of the answer. Maybe an older one with a lean burn engine. Have you checked out the Aero Civic?

As far as the Prius goes I'm not trying to scare you away from buying one. They can be a great car. I went and bought a 2006 Prius last year with a bad HV battery, bad 12V battery, bad catalytic converter, bad wheel bearing, burns oil and has a damaged front end from hitting a deer and yet I still love the car. Little by little I'm getting it fixed up. If you're not afraid to work on one and realize that certain repair items are going to be expensive yet if fixed properly will last another 15-20 years then go for a Prius. But if not, stick with the Civic.
