So with the Can/US dollar being about equal we can really compare gas prices now. I just paid $1.16 a liter, which if my math is correct is $4.40/gal. That's for 87 octane. Any of you want to move to Canada?
 92 is $1.26/liter today. Kinda glad I don't have a 3SGTE

Prices have dropped here. Its about €6 / gallon. Converted about $9.00/gallon.
 It went up to about 10 dollar/gallon here 1,5 weeks ago.EDIT: This is for RON 98 fuel. I believe thats equal to 93 premium in the states?! This post has been edited by Kadett: Nov 30, 2007 - 12:06 PM -------------------- JDM Powerplant installed, BPU coming very soon!

alabama and south carolina are getting away with murder! somebody told me it was like 2.80 something for regular there in sc and like 2.70 something in alabama... those dummys are driving to south carolina (about 25 minutes from charlotte depending on where you are) to get gas.
btw: our military kicks ass so we get low gas prices! GO U.S. FREAKING A!!!! This post has been edited by easternpiro1: Nov 30, 2007 - 12:43 PM --------------------  QUOTE (Galcobar @ Oct 15, 2008 - 2:44 AM)  You want power but have no money. That's a problem. Cheap. Reliable. Fast. Pick two. |

Its always been about 3-4 times USD fuel price = Euro fuel price. Your goverment makes money out of selling military stuff etc etc. We dont have that. So in order to keep the goverment cash flow up there are taxes on Fuel and other stuff as well. Also on the cars themselfs. A 20.000 dollar Mustang would cost more then 40.000 Euro here in Holland. 45 % added tax cost shipping etc. A 30k dollar Evo costs 55k Euro here etc. So to see you guys making topics like. WOW fuel is now 4 USD/gallon makes me laugh quiet a bit. -------------------- JDM Powerplant installed, BPU coming very soon!

Petrol prices are the same everywhere, it's just the tax on top that varies, and why we get raped in Europe. Not because of the Military
 In the UK, i paid 101.9p per litre equivalent to around $7.70 per US gallon -------------------- |

The US military or rather the production of US Weapons/Vehicles/Airplanes etc that sell all over the world generates enough money for the US goverment that they dont have to use taxes on fuel and so on to keep the cash level high enough for its country. -------------------- JDM Powerplant installed, BPU coming very soon!

Broad sweeping generalizations like that are wrong on so many different levels. Don't be such an ass. -------------------- |
