Oh, please. When you compare apples for apples, GM is the mileage king this year.

I find that the Asian(Japanese) cars give the best mileage, they seem to build the best little efficient motors out there. The Americans like to make up for lack of power and design by putting in a larger displacement engine, hence more gas consumption.

asian cars have high compression ratios and have crazy valve timing to use very little fuel efficiently;sheet metal is extremely thin (so car is light) so it will rust right through if you live in snowy areas really high weight/power and displacement/ power ratio (honda s2000 makes 110 hp/ litre)
european is more performance oriented so gas milage isnt as good but really high weight/ power and displacement/power
american has a very low weight/power and displacement/power, resale value is crap so i would never buy a domestic brand

why not go with a diesel. get a VW diesel and get about 45 mpg. the next gen diesels coming out next year are supposed to get around 60 mpg is what i hear. VW has the Lupo that they sell in Europe and it gets 78 mpg with the diesel engine
