The numbers are easy..even Honda Civic HF's got 43 back in the day!
The question is..will you want to drive what it takes to get there? My neighbor had a Civic HF, I have been in Smart cars....and both are not on my list. The real issue for us, as enthusiasts, is how long will it be before gasoline has a huge sin tax attached to 'rectify' our aberrant way of thinking? The powers that be already want to tax soda for the health care boondoggle. See if the smugness remains when gas is north of $5/per. Then, of course, you will have to rethink the 'cash for clunkers' program so that all of the shiftless and lazy can get a new car to pick up their Obama checks. And soon...why not tax the cars you consider non-PC? Welcome to Obamunism!
