Hey California 911 Owners...

Hey fellow California 92-octane drinking 911 owners, how're the new pump prices workiin' out for ya???? What's the highest $$$ you've paid? You folks in the other 49, break our hearts, tell us how much you're paying. And to any PIFLs (Pelicans In Foreign Lands) out there, can you convert your fuel prices into USDs and give us a comparison?

I saw $5.39 the other day for 91. Haven't paid more than $4.62 yet, though. It's supposed to come down next week...

As a PIFL here in England I will make you feel very lucky with your fuel prices. We pay around £1.40 a litre for premium/standard unleaded. There are 4.54 litres in an English gallon so that's just over £6 (£6.16) a gallon. Current exchange rate brings that to $9.85 a gallon. Read and weep!

127.9 for 89, my car gets chevron 94 @ 140.9

3.78541 litres to get a gallon and convert to USD and its ~$4.94/gallon for regular and $5.44 for 94


Not as big of a gap as I thought it would be, still expensive though.

It's $5.60 US/GAL in Australia, and that's considering a dollar parity at the moment.

I'm paying about $4.83 for Chevron 91 in the SF Bay area. I don't pay much attention to prices because what can you really do about the price of tea in China?

$3.65 here in Tucson. I thought that was pricey, but from the other posts it looks like a screamin' deal. - Except for Venezuela.

Just on $6.00 US a gal. approx with conversion for 91(we have a choice of 91 ,93,95,and 98),way up here in north qld,Australia,up to last year we were the only state to have an 8 cent a liter or 30 cent a gal reduction for freight to get the fuel up here, the State Govt canned it to bring more revenue in,guess what ? Landside defeat in last state election.

US$7.90/USGal here in Denver – for 100 octane unleaded every other ½-tank. About the same for leaded 114 octane (for those of us with 11.x:1 CR.)

Best,
Grady
