get a sportbike and call it a day. 50mpg, blow the doors of anything with 4 wheels, park almost anywhere.  the only downside is cargo space, but really, what else do you carry to work other than your laptop and a notebook?

And in the first snap rainstorm you:

A) Crash horribly due to a loss of traction
B ) Crash horribly because you're not moving as quick as everyone else due to traction considerations
C) Crash horribly because the spray and occlusion of vision makes it harder to see a bike in a rainstorm, nevermind their own mindset against there being a bike in that maelstrom and your own visibility challenges due to said rainstorm.

A good compact is the way to go. Good, efficient, existing gas and diesel compacts are there as options. Most folks and their phallic pride can't stand them and therefore they wait and waffle and bitch.
