so no 89 octane in this bad boy!?!!?

, but i still love everything else about this car, even though i dont own one yet....i am still in a frivilous search for "just the right car" for myself, and i am starting to figuer out there is no perfect car. for power, i have my eye on the 300 SRT-8 and the CTS-V...oh, yeah, but i dont wanna pay $50G's

for luxury, the new infinity M35/45 is real nice, heck so is the new RL (id love to be able to afford one of those) and the new GS430 is real nice....but i dont wanna pay $50+G's

i am 24, would loooooooooove to be able to spend like a banchee on a car that would wipe my butt on command, and have bird poop sensing wipers, but i have to be realistic. this car seems like aq great value and a great buy--two very different things. the only think i cant really get excited about is the expensive stuff to fill up. that will pretty much balance out my now, 19mpg with the cheap stuff with my 96 Maxima....but alas, i hope to be a future owner in the not so distant future, if and only if i can convice the Father in law that its ok to buy foreign (he works for GM)(and i have already gone in the Marysville, OH route)

anyway, the more i realize what i am doing the more i ramble on, so, i apologize...and all the starving pigmies in New Gui...........ouch, i botched that one

I've been running 91 since way back when ( ) it used to be 92 in CA, in all my cars..
I believe I am getting better freeway milage, expecially out of our Truck. It has a 39 Gallon tank and can go 450 miles + on the same tank. before, I would make it 380 - 400... Maybe it had something to do with the age of the car, but I've been using only 91 for about 3 years now.
Considering the investment for the auto, I think it's worth it.

The premium would make sure you could fully enjoy spirited driving on this vehicle.
