Okay, I'm looking to buy a Hybrid car and I want a sleek design with a nice MPG rating for a low price. I don't mind what year, maker, or model as long as MPG is >35 and the price is Low.
Links to spec and prices would be sweet.

Insights are no longer sold. And used ones don't have the accessories I was hoping for.

Define "low price". You can get a hybrid Toyota Prius or Honda Civic starting in the low 20s, but depending on what options you want the price can rise past $25k. The Toyota Camry Hybrid starts at $26k and can easily go past $30k.
Every other hybrid I can think of doesn't get >35mpg (Ford Escape hybrid, Saturn Vue greenline, Honda Accord hybrid), not to mention they too are more expensive.
I think it's going to be at least 5 more years until you see truly low priced, economical hybrids. Financially I think it makes more sense to just buy a regular Civic/Corolla/etc. You can still average 30+ mpg in one, and in 5 years you can re-evaluate the hybrid choices.
Below are some links to hybrid comparison sites.
