This is at the corner of Dale Blvd and Hodley Rd in NOVA (Dale City ?)

Yea gas here in southern MD went from $2.67 to $2.90 overnight, and I heard by the weekend it will be over $3.00 for 87. Just wondering what do you guys put in your S2000's reg or prem?

Use what the owners manual calls for, prem in the case w/ the S. I remember Motorweek's Pat Goss saying you can damage an engine by using an octane that is higher or lower than remommended by the automaker.

i was listening to dc101 the other night.... and the dj was talking about how he bought a prepaid gas card for $150 and got $50 worth of gas for free.... i forgot what it was called tho... (since it was late and my mind wasn't there... ) but i'm sure if you go to dc101's website you might be able to find it somewhere.... .. and $50 bucks is like a tank and 3/4 for us.... almost two full fillups..

Don't have a S2000 Owner's Manual yet! On my Turbo Dsm's (sold) they remind you to put in Prem on the gauge cluster and on the gas cap.
I was J/W because the S is a n/a motor and I'm used to boost.
