Gas mileage is my main driving force, yes. Given that Civic is a VERY popular car, and I'm not hearing similar things about the Toyota Prius, though I should at least look at it, I'm leaning heavily toward the Civic.
The Honda Insight isn't a general purpose car, so while it has better mileage, it isn't a consideration since it has only two seats and no actual trunk.
No other makes have hybrids yet, though they might, for all I know, come out in the 2004 model year. Any such new models will be in their first model year, and my current car won't last long enough to make it to the 2005 model year.
Still, a used regular Civic or other car might be okay, depending on how "used" it is. Say two or three years...
