Curious Gas Thread...

We can use 87, temporarily, but what is temporary to some may not be the same to others.

I currently have 75,000 miles on my 2008 G35 (bought it new). I sold my first 2004 G35 with almost 90,000 miles. I have used regular gas in both cars from the beginning and never had any problems (including knocking) with either car.
I did not take my cars to the race track but have had a lot of fun (and I mean it!) with them.
...
for the VQ35, the owner's manual states:...you may use unleaded regular gasoline with...a decrease in performance.
Think of how much more fun you could have been having with your car had you only used the correct fuel from the beginning.

The money people think they're saving when buying gas for $0.10 less a gallon is actually costing them more in the long run when you take into consideration the fact that our cars run less efficiently on lesser octane fuels.
Whatever.... If someone is so broke that they need to save $2.00 at the pump, the G is probably the wrong car to begin with.

I use premium but I understand how it could add up to a significant amount over the year for some. A couple tanks a week is over $1200/year. If they lease then they probably won't care as much for a vehicle they won't have in a few years but that's another side of the coin.

I'm sincerely curious. Would you (or others) feel the same way if the difference is $0.58 per gallon?
