7th: 2008 Mazda MX-5 Miata – $20,585 base price
The Mazda Miata is shaping up to be a strong contender any time the words "fuel economy" and "sporty" are put together. Why not? Its engine puts out plenty of power for fun, but is restrained in its consumption of premium gas. The lightweight chassis is great for handling, and the styling is perfect for people who want to be seen.
