I've made the misstake of buying a toyota, and the amount of engineering failiures I've had to fix is insane.
Plus they all rust like crazy.
And toyotas/subarus diesels are either pretty terrible or bought in from other companies.
Gasoiline here is about 1,50€/L here wich equates to about 6,84$/gallon.

Be careful that we're talking about the same gallon - it's a different volume between US and UK, for instance.
Honda sold the Insight here which had an official epa rating of 70mpg US highway, but would cruise at 100mpg at 50mph with the A/C off, even without the hybrid system enabled, which is 120mpg UK.
