$2.54? Bah, don't whine, I pay something like $6 a gallon here!

But at least I can drive as fast as I want... sometimes.

actually cause you don't start making boost till around 5500rpm, your mileage doesn't change much unless you have your foot in it all the time...then the gauge goes down quick.

i should move back to philly...WA's premium 92 is 2.25 no money for mods, gotta save up for college. ::sigh:: i'll be like one of those 25 yr old dudes who still try to mod cars.
I read this one and had to laugh. 25 is just so old isn't it? Just remember, there are guys twice that age modding hot rods and muscle cars still. In fact, they paved the way when it comes to modifying cars. The whole "import scene" (man I hate that term!) is not revolutionary. It's all been done before, different era, different cars. And yes, those "old" guys still muster up enough strength to turn wrenches. I'm not trying to rag on you, I just thought your comment was funny.

As for the mods go, I am holding off on making any mods but, it's not because of gas prices. For the street, the S2000 in stock form is more than enough (to me anyways). Maybe if I decide to track the car someday, that might change, but for now...
