I'm looking for real world numbers. V8's please post your mileage if you've read this far..

When gas was $1.50/gallon another 30cents was a big difference but with $2.50+ prices that same difference is less compared with the total price.
In addition, there have been numerous tests in car magazines that concluded with all the electronics on engine today you can run regular in an premuim engine (the elctronics will adjust to compensate), however, your mileage and performance will drop. So why bother.
I wouldn't forgo a car I wanted just because it costs an extra $3 to fill it up. I driven a car that requires premium for 13 years and it's just a cost of operating it.
