Dont get one of those two cars, get something that is fun and economical. I tried to do the fuel sipper thing with a honda CRZ and it was fun, for a couple of months. I had to get rid of it and get a 5.0 mustang. Go with something like the veloster turbo or even a focus. something with just a little more power and still 35+ mpg.

Yeah...we'll see. Actually I am thinking of getting a 4runner...way different than what I initially wanted.

Good luck with the part-out. I have a 2011 4Runner as a daily driver and it has been great (except for the gas mileage). Getting a crappy 18.3 mpg, but that's still better than my s/c'd Z. No regrets about the 4Runner, it's been great.
