Calling all BALLARS!!
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)

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.

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.

LOL!!!!
Whats funny is.. as they were towing away my totaled Sentra.. I was like * .. "****.. I should have drained the gas out! That was a full tank!"
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.

You drive around everywhere and don't give a shiet about premium gas prices!!!
From DC Suburbs to Skyline Drive is over 70 miles.... that is about 3-4 gallons of fuel (being conservative), $4/gallon, comes out to be atleast $24-$32... and thats not counting Fing around on the way there and back....
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.
