New Car

I will be in the market for a new/first car. I don't really know what it should be but it has to be less than 3 grand, reliable, relativly cheap insurance, and doesn't waste a lot of gas. Civic is one of the cars that satisfies those requirements. ANy of you guys have other suggestions for me?

Sentra, Escort, Corolla, Prizm

Any other suggestions?
