Matter of fact, why is it that petrol is so low-grade in US? In Europe it's almost impossible to find any lower than 95 octane. Also, zero ethanol/suplhur as far as I know.
Not trying to be an ass, just curious. Maybe because it's twice as cheap? (over $6 for a gallon in EU)

silly. gas isn't that much different station to station. and when it is different, it's going to make a marginal difference in your car. the few cases of bad gas are not specific to a particular gas station.
