You awake at an used car lot being sold to Trusty Dave as a slave in a dystopian AnCap alternate future. He offers to give you your freedom, but only if you race for him in a series of races called Ultimate Moto. The races vary from a downhill touge run on Everest, to 24 hours endurance race on Nurburgring, to a highway pull on the Wangan, to a simple 5000 laps around Daytona. The only qualifier is that a car most be in factory stock condition. Upon exploring his lot you find only the following cars that aren't modified and in good condition. Which do you choose?

So I've just fuelled a whole tank of premium gas after quite a bit of extensive research and all I can say is that I can definitely feel the difference, especially around 3K RPM (it's naturally aspired 77kw, 1.6L that peaks around 5K RPM). Also yes, the tank was so empty that the last few hundred meters to the gas station were quite a struggle.
Anyway

>Should I tank premium?
That depends. How big is your engine? IMHO the bigger the engine the lesser the difference. Can you justify the price difference for your shitbox?
>Where should I tank premium?
Dunno, I'm yuropoor so I visited the local car forums and looked in there. What I found out is that in my country Shell is the biggest shit money can buy and the small-ish local gas chain has the best gas money can buy (ethanol-free AFAIK but that matters only to people who use their car once a month). So search locally. I would bet that even in the US the quality will vary from state to state.
>How about engine life?
IMHO you will take a better care of your engine if you service it regularly and change the oil regularly rather then just spend all your money on expensive gas with loads of additives.
>Why did you do it?
Well I like my car and there is A LOT of electronical shit inside the engine so I figured it would be worth it. Also I'm not on a tight budget.

>I know, I know. This much autism because of a few threads on an Uzbekistan wheelbarrow image board...

For Ford it was the Taurus, the first modern car they ever produced to compete with the threat of Japanese cars. It was fwd, unibody, fairly light, modest engine and unibody. I'm also a big fan of the hidden front air intake look.

To be only twice as slow as a Model S instead of 2.2x as slow. Of course acceleration rates aren't linear so that's a bit unfair to the Model S, which in practical terms is about 3x as fast for not much more money.

The Toyota Supra will share a platform with the BMW Z5, which appears to be heading in a different design direction. Both rear-wheel-drive vehicles will be produced by Magna Steyr in Graz, Austria.

Powertrain options for the Toyota Supra remain unknown. It could source turbocharged four- and six-cylinder engines from BMW, or it could use Toyota’s new twin-turbo V-6. A hybrid version could arrive later down the line.

Is this your last resort? A burger flipping job would be better anyway, especially if you're in a position where you don't have to deal with the customers. And given that you're beowsing this site, they probably wouldn't want you to anyway.

I want to do this too, but I haven't driven in over 2 years, because mummy doesn't want me using her car. I think i should practice with that before i move on to buses. I can't get a job to buy my own, because I've applied to all the fast food places and none of them will hire me. The only place that will is a telephone survey call center. I'm gonna have to bite the bullet and do that to earn enough for my own car and insurance, then I can move up to buses.

Right now, which year is the cut-off for being classic?

I'd call it '79 and back, unless it's a specific body style that continued past then and didn't change significantly.

Like one guy has a '79 C10. Another guy posts his '83 C10. It's all good.

However, just because a 280Z is all fine and dandy doesn't mean a shitty 280ZX is okay. Sure, it's a classic by law, but it doesn't fit the theme around here.
