The 1994 Civic VX got 50 mpg. The 2009 Fit only gets 35 mpg.

Would Honda (or any other manufacturer) even be able to build a new 50 mpg 1994 Civic VX equivalent today, given all the safety and pollution requirements implemented over the last decade and a half? One who's price would also be equivalent?
Good question. I would love to see what kind of mileage a Fit would get if someone transplanted the drive train from a 1994 VX into it. I think the performance might be a little slower and not have as low emissions. The sales of the new Prius is apparently slaughtering the new Insight because of the better mileage.
