Jersey prices. If I didn't feel the way I do about getting premium, I could get regular at the citgo next to my house for 1.73. Or premium for 2.28
nice

People really need to stop going on about damage to the engine from using 87. The car can run on it all day long.
And to the snobs going on about it's just a couple bucks each fill up.
That's still not good value is it? Over and over again it has been shown in videos and test that premium fuel makes like 2-7bhp difference. You cannot fell that. What you feel I'd a placebo effect. You want to believe you have more power. Only a dyno or on track driving will tell.
Here is another video done in the UK to using 95ron up to 98ron.

Where I am, if I want ethanol-free gas, I have to get Shell 91. Call me a snob for wanting to prolong the life of my engine but I'd prefer to pay a few bucks more each fill up than deal with the ramifications ten years down the line.

How many cars have you owned for ten years?
You want to use 10% or 15% Ethanol gas in your GTI? Be my guest. I never said lower octane gas would reduce my engine life. The misunderstanding between us is that the ramifications I'm referring to are with regards to the ethanol in my engine over 10 years.
In my family, we have a 99 RX300 and 00 Honda Accord. We like to keep our cars going as long as possible. Besides, with the real estate prices what they are in Toronto, it's unlikely I'll be able to afford a mortgage and a new car every couple of years so yeah I'm looking to prolong my investment.

Jersey prices are awesome, every time you go there its mandatory to fill up your tank but those tolls to go back to NYC really kill the fun in it $14.00 Just to cross the Bridge if you don't use EZ pass!!!! sucks
Filled up today, regular was 2.31, premium was 2.74 Stupid silly big turbo.
Try it when gas was almost $5 and you drove a 15mpg F150.
My GTI tank at 11 gallons and up to 34mpg is a joy.
This weekend drove down to Alabama and averaged 36mpg.
