I didn't wait, I filled up at 1.02. Put 33 Litres in, so I spent an extra 99 cents total...god help me.

Me too, I had to fill up last night.

When I bought this car in late August it cost me $72 to fill up. Now I am down to roughly $60

This is the pain of owning a rotary vehicle. Fuel is always going to cost us an arm and a leg.
But I wouldn't trade her in for anything.
I can't wait for Sun.! The last true drive before putting her away permanently. :(

When NEO said that, I had a flash back of that halloween episode of Simpsons, when Ned Flanders is holding the fire axe and saying "It's time to put you away!"

Imagine someone smashing up Neo's car? oh man.... that would be like directly hurting Neo himself..

Hoser,

Just for the season. I'll never put her permantenly away. That's just wrong.

Footman,

See thats messed up, Thief. I swear the Premium gas rates are changing from Station to Sation. Last week when gas was at 103.5, I pumped 91 Octane Premium at Shell for 112. Same day, (did a lot of driving) saw Esso have their midgrade for 112.

Messed up.

you should try living in england petrol has just dropped to under £1 a litre for 95 ron or down to £1.07 a litre for 99 ron
there again the rx8 costs twice as much to buy over here to start with but its still worth it for the fun

I have not seen the price this morning but Arco had regular for $3.06 last night. I hope it is down.

the jump from regular to premium seems to be pretty much linear. It's not proportioned. I remember at 80 cents/L, premium was around 10 cents more, but when the price was 1.20/L, it was still around 10 cents more!

So that's telling me the cost of refinement from regular to premium is fixed and has nothing to do with demand/rising costs...

I'm sorry, but I have to comment on it.

Phil,

$3.43 a gallon? Man WTF. My $1.12/L works out to $4.25 a gallon.

I dont know, it may be fixed, but I think certain Stations are trying to gouge more. I vividly remmeber pay 112 for Premium last time when it ws 103, Now with it at 99, i know Its jus 3 cents, but I'm just pointing out what doesnt make sense. Watever, I'll just stick with Shell, cheaper, and Air Mile incentive.
