Cee Jay - - believe it or not, that is still cheap! Over here in Sunny South Africa, we get taxed to death on fuel purchases. The Government over here boosts their revenue substantially by tax and levy's imposed on the fuel price. We pay in excess of R16 per liter, roughly 1 Euro for a liter of premium!! Sad story is, we export fuel to our neighboring countries and they pay substantially less....ridiculous!

Can't locate the 6th one at the moment, perhaps just sold or taken off the market. (Had around 265 Miles if I recall correctly.)
I've never understood that buy and hold theory. Especially with these cars!

I'm paying almost $4/gallon in LA now - 1 euro per liter doesn't sound that bad...

$3.11/gallon? Why that barely covers the gas taxes in our lovely state of California. $3.11 looks pretty good from our vantage point.

Mine went down towards 'normal' yesterday, now it's $3.03 per gallon. It WAS at $2.88 this past January for the 'premium'. 'Regular' grade was $2.58 at that time. Less than a gallon of milk.
