I don't see how ANY Corolla could qualify.  I looked up the '93 Corolla
on fueleconomy.gov.  New mpg ratings for the sedan run (city) around
24-26 mpg, highway 31 mpg (depending on transmission, there are 4 and 5
manuals, and a couple different auto types).  For the station wagon,
whether manual or automatic, it is 23/30.  To qualify, a vehicle must
get under 18 mpg combined city/highway.  '93 Corolla doesn't qualify.
Did not look up any others, but I drove a '76 Corolla Lift Back from new
for fifteen years, 298K miles.  It got about 27 city/35 highway.  Dave
