    Wow, this may suck to be paying twice as much as we were 1 year ago, but we're still half the price of Europe.

        I think it was like 78 bucks last time I filled my e23 745i about three weeks ago. That stung a lil bit.

About 320 miles to the tank if I drive normal, and 280 if I drive hard. Got 360 miles to the tank on the road trip I just took... about 35mpg as I worked it out. While in Florida on the road trip prices were over $4.00/gal in some parts of the state.

            On a tangent... does the 91 318is really need premium fuel only? I know it's higher compression, but didn't think it really needed premium.
            yes, it does.

                    Pulled in on fumes in my 97 540i6 and cost me $75 last week. 87 325is is sitting on jackstands, but I think it is costing me more in pieces than if it were driving.

                            Damn - gas in Sacto ain't any cheaper than the city (sigh). :-?

                                It cost me about $45 after running out of gas (fuel tank guage doesn't work).

                                            Who the f cares? You need a better job if youre worried about gas prices driving an e30.

                                            As time went on, the factory developed the car each year, making it faster, more comfortable, and capable of handling at higher speeds.
                                            You don’t want this. You want the trickiest, most dangerous, oldest model you can find. Only then can you prove to the world that you’re a man.

                                                If you're going to subtly gloat about your job (just like you did in the warfare thread) gtfo because no one gives a fuck.

                                                    55$ in the e36. The obc range was at 22 miles. I have not put a full tank in the m3 in ages so I'm not sure on that one.
