92 octane.

Perhaps, if fuel is a concern, a Z doesn't make sense for you.

Hell I even think a bike could also be in the picture if I see prices hit $4 a gal.

So your rich and worry about gas prices for the Z?

Buy a civic and be done with it if your worried about gas

I'd say get the new Si, a little better MPG (not much in reality) but it also requires premium

Civic DX 5sp FTW!

hey flamemesenseless, if you can't afford the fuel, then you shouldn't buy the car...

I'm a sales manager at a Toyota/Scion dealership, come, I have quite a few Prius' on the lot...87 octane, and up to 60mph...can't beat that

you guys are harsh on the new Z owners...the "noob" questions that you guys were mocking on the first page arent all really that bad, its just a new Z enthusiast looking for a good start...and also, whether anyone likes it or not, there are a lot of guys out there that have no idea about parts of a car or anything having to do with it, they just have an idea of whats out there and that its better for their car haha.

but to stay on topic, i prefer sunoco 93 octane..i dont go below 92 ever. and im picky with where i buy my gas from..
