WTB: a fun gas sipper

I'm looking for a fun gas sipper to drive as a commuter. If anyone is looking to sell something that might fit the bill, let me know.
Serious and not so serious replies encouraged.

A Solstice is a nice fun ride.  :thumbs:

Or...

If you're looking for better mileage one of these would work year 'round down there in the land of no snow. The color's good too!

My son-in-law had an NA Veloster, and just traded it in on a Turbo Veloster.  It's his daily driver and he loves it, and is getting great mileage.

You should get one of these GJ



Gas sipper is a relative term isn't it?
