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.
A couple years ago at its peak, I paid $1.47/L (91 octane) to fill up the S. It was so painful I can't remember how much the total was.

Why do people always feel the need to bring up the fact that people overseas pay much more than we do? They pay that much because that's how their government pays for their social programs and healthcare. They did not see their prices double over the past few years.

Not the best idea, because then you always have "old" gas in the tank.

It's roughly $1 to fill up over here in Venezuela...

Nice gas prices, just wouldn't wanna live here forever due to the horrendous traffic jams. Good thing it's just a weeks gig and then I'm back home.
