Yaris is the best out of that list of "cars". I don't understand the $11k part. Are you trying to buy a car for that? Yaris is around $16k. Golf, I mean rabbit, is also $16k but I guess that is not an option? If you get a Yaris the "s" or sport model has seats that are more adjustable and will be more comfortable over many miles vs. the base car.

A possible cheaper and more reliable option (Toyota Yaris excluded I mean) is to buy a 92-95 civic VX. They get 56 mpg when new and used get about 51 mpg. The last one I bought I paid $2700 for. They will drive forever and cost next to nothing to keep on the road.

Base corollas and civics can get around 40mpg so a used one of these may be an ultrareliable option too and will get about the same mileage as the ones you mentioned?
