Hey just looked Festivas up on http://www.gassavers.org, they are getting over 42 mpg, with one getting over 52 mpg.
I say get some bigger rims, slap some racing sticker on it, and paint numbers on the doors and roof.
That or paint it up like the Mirth Mobile.
Oh, and you need a Buddy Christ on the dash.

Hey it's not bad, you got to do what you got to do sometime. I think you should put a 4" cowl to intimidate drivers in front of you. I am hoping to pick up a 65-70's Austin Mini next year. The thing I find unbelievable about these cars are 40 year old technology and they are getting 42-50mpg. Granted it's a rollerskate with a weedwacker engine, but still.
