~18/24 city/hwy...not horrible, but not great, either. That gets better as you do mods...if you can stay out of it...

Gas prices are dropping.

You don't buy Zs for the gas mileage.

You sure as hell don't buy twin turbo Zs for the gas mileage.

Although about 24-26 mpg is easy enough on the highway due to the tall rear end.

Anyway...

yes, i agree gas prices are quite high right now, however, i'm sure you guy's aren't paying what i pay right now... i'm paying 106.9 per litre for 92 octane right now.. i worked that out and that's approx $4.04 per gallon.. and you guys thought you had it bad

Yeah, and gas is about 30 cents cheaper around here then it was a month ago.

Which means that by the end of July (optimistic target date to have the Z running again) it should probably be back around 2 dollars or less for premium (as if you would use anything else in a Z) but then with the octance booster...anyway...

17 PSI HERE I COME BABY!!!!!!!
