Currently, here in Canada, we pay about 1.30CAD per litre.
You US folk pay about 1.05CAD per litre.
In germany, the current price is about 2.20 per liter CAD

My point exactly - gas is going to be a little over twice as much, not 10x the price.The Great Big M20 Timing Belt DIY

It usually works out to about $8 a gallon. The nurburgring is NOTHING like the autobahn.Comment

Rent a Bavaria
Yes, so gas is expensive in Europe. I found gas prices very affordable when I was in Saudi Arabia, but Germany is more pleasant.
So, as long as you're paying for gas, why not rent a classic BMW from BMW?
"Drive and let drive - BMW Classic offers models from its successful product history to rent. Travel back in time and experience the fascination of historical BMW vehicles today. "
That's going to be my retirement job, traveling from junkyard to junkyard in Germany in a 3.0CS, buying parts to sell to R3V.

Here's the place my buddy rented his car from:

Spend some time checking out the site, he is a very experienced driver and he rented the Suzuki Swift "Stage 2" and said it was plenty fast.
How anyone can say the Autobahn and the 'Ring are basically the same makes no sense to me. If you've ever driven the 'Ring, there's no way you'd ever be able to say that.Comment

True, I've never been to the ring, I had enough fun on the Autobahn as it was. It's cheaper as you dont' have to rent another car and you can do unlimited speeds legally and you dont have to just stay on the ring
So please tell me, what makes the ring better?If it's got tits or tires, it's gonna cost ya!Comment
