The fuel is to expensive? Well, over here in Germany 1 litre Super Plus is around 1,40 Euro at the moment. And that is a very low price compared to a year ago where we were at 1,80 Euro a litre. 1 gallon is 3,7854118 litre. So at the moment one gallon Super Plus would be 5,30 Euro, or 5,85 USD.
16 MPG = 16 miles per gallon
I have a Boxster S MT.
Fuel consumption:
Lowest was around 8 litre / 100 Km -> MPG = 29.40
Highest was around 16,5 litre / 100 Km (around 220 - 260 Km/h on the Autobahn all the time) -> MPG 14.25
The average fuel consumption of my car is at 10,5 litre / 100 Km which is 22.40 MPG
Bought the car new in 2003.

Octane ratings are calculated differently here in the U.S.
91 octane in California would be 95 to you.
