if your comparing to civic's then yes our cars are guzzlers, however compared to most domestic v6's or rx-8's, sti's, or basically most fun cars the 350z is pretty good on fuel IMO.

i drove a pathfinder before the Z and that thing was slow and sucked back the gas, i find with the torque of the vq it is easy to drive efficiently and still enjoy the ride, not to mention 33-34 mpg on the highway going ~80 ( 130 kmph ish)

also with some rough calculations you guys say your paying $4 gallon for premium, up here it is $1.33 a liter....~ $4.92 gallon

oh well, thats why we bust our asses to make that money, i would rather pay at the pump than be a honda chump!! (unless it was a NSX)

Turbo Z is bad enough. The F-150 is kicking my a$$. Just filled up with 87 this morning and it was $87.00...and the gas light wasn't even on.

Sounds like the OP is over his head if gas prices have become "ballar" to him. lol

I never pay attention. There's nothing i personaly can do about the prices, so there's no sense in stressin' it. I still need to get to work.

It's like when you are a smoker. You "need" your smokes. They could charge $15 a pack, and you'd still pay it.

I've got two cars and a Sea-Doo. And none of them are what i would consider "good" on gas. (esp the Sea-Doo, lol) But they are cheap entertainment, compared to going out to dinner/shopping, etc.

Are you a baller if you have spent a lot of money to make your car faster but in return you get better MPG?

aka breathing mods and lightweight stuff

Ahhh gotta love the junkyard. Junkyard cars for DD and junkyard gas to fill up everyday
I have a pretty decent amount of gas in the yard! I have yet to take any of my daily driver, or delivery trucks to a gas station in the past 4 years.
I fill up my Z every other week.
These gas prices are gettin rediculous. If I decide to not keep the Z around for so long I wouldnt mind puttin in junkyard gas in it.

I have over 800gallons of free gas right now and fill up that tank everyday when we take apart cars. Theres a special addiditive that we put in to clean the gas so its safe. Just dont know about what octane level it is since its been all mixed up.

Yea man I love fillin up at the junkyard. Our delivery trucks usually take around 25-30 gallons and at $4/gallon I can not even imagine how I would feel after I fill up at a normal gas station.

WOW... True Ballars!!! I salute you.

People w/ Turbos: Yous a Ballar~~~~
People w/ SupaChargers: Yous a Ballar~~~~
People w/ any mods that hinder your Avg. MPG: Yous a Ballar~~~~

I have been considering taking carpets, spare tires and have been driving around with just a half a tank of gas just to get better MPG... I envy you.
