Hi guys,

My slow-ass automatic Golf 2.0 has its advertised MPG roughly the same as the FR-S.
So, with the inherently higher cost of the premium fuel, I'm about the same on fuel costs.

But fuel cost is very much irrelevant when I'm -$25.000 out of the pocket.

If I pay $1500 in fuel costs annually now, the new total would be equivalent to $6500 in fuel cost over the next 5 years.
If I could hold on the the FR-S for at least 15 years, I would probably even out a bit.

Buying a car is always a bitch... I hate to be a downer.
