not *all* classic American cars are over the top. Rambler (American Motors), for one, made cars that not only got great gas mileage (in some cases even for modern times) but where also reasonably sized, styled, and priced.
The Nash Metropolitan (American designed and build in England before Nash merged with Hudson to become American Motors) got around 40mpg in the 1950's.
