Nobody knows about the dude with the soon-to-be pink onevia because he is barely getting it painted. I know him because he's my sister ex-boyfriend.

You also saw the cherry red fastback in my yard? That fastback is actually no longer in service because my sister crashed it, the sil80 is mines, and the other fastback you saw parked in the front is my brother. My sis might get a Z32 after crashing the fastback, my bro might get a s14, and i actually plan on getting a coupe 240 and sell my fastback to my cousin (of course i'll be swapping frontend, gotta have my silvia front). "Nissan Family All the Way!"

To retract my previous post: The price here has risen every day this week.

It was at 1.65 for the good stuff a day or so ago, now it is at 1.73 or maybe a few cent higher. This sucks! I am paying 1.53 for the cheap stuff!

Right now in northern Illinois its 2.00 even for 93 octane, but i guess that isn't as bad as some of the prices you guys have to pay.

Well I was just wondering what's the gas price around everybody's area. I live in San Bernardino, and the price over here is the same as Long Beach.


If you're ever chillin' in riverside, lemme know. :D There's a couple NICO guys here. I've seen a SIleighty or two around UCR...

Anyway, CA gas prices are higher than the rest of the country because due to CA-specific laws, our gas has to be formulated specifically for CA. The result is, they can't ship gas in from other states to tweak the supply.

Between $1.77 and $1.99 in San Jose, CA. Depending on where you are, the gas stations will jack up prices if there is no competition nearby.

Up in Menlo Park, where the rich folk live, the prices are higher by anywhere near 25 to 50 cents a gallon! Amazing that the residents put up with that crap.

Ultra-cheap Georgia went up within the past day or two.

87- 1.39 to 1.5989- 1.49-1.6993- 1.59-1.79 (sense a trend?)

Crazy, luckily my parents are really cool and pay for gas...
