Default $41 at the pump

I don't drive much so it doesn't really hurt me, but I was surprised to spend $41 to fill up the car. That's the most I've ever spent filling up my S. When I first got the car like 5 years ago, it used to fill up for about $26. it's closed to double.

What's the most you're ever paid to fill up?

$45 with the S. I remember it was in summer, close to $4/gal or so.

A local did that once, (105 octane I think) and his car would not VTEC.

$36 or so, but gas is always less expensive in the Southeast.

52bucks in my 240 (premium).

Gas is a bit more epensive overseas tho, I was in India last year and it was about 1.25/liter, so around 4.50-5.00/gallon.
