2004 Toyota ECHO Sedan 4dr Sedan (1.5L 4cyl 5M)
Better than a Prius
 I feel like I won the lottery when I found this car.  2002 with 19k on it.  A new car for 50% off!  Since then, I average a combined 43 mpg summer/39 mpg winter at 9000 feet up in the mountains.  Power to weight ratio is fantastic, especially considering the fuel economy.  Acceleration good, cornering good, braking superb = great in snow.  Slightly worse mpg than Prius, but no huge toxic battery!  Better performance than Prius due to its much lighter weight and all at one third the price!  Much less complicated mechanically and Toyota build quality should equal great longevity and reliability.  I've see Echos with 400k on them.  This car is the nerd that never was popular but won in the end.
