You are not far off - over here we pay around $5.70 a gallon - but who cares if you are driving a Cobra. We have been paying these prices for so long that you just get used to it.

When I lived in the US in the mid 90's gas was only $1 per gallon so obviously you have had a much higher rate of increase than we have.

At that time people would ask me if I was worried about the gas mileage on the V12 Jaguar I had. I would answer that if you translated it back to European prices it did 54 to the gallon!
