yeah the 95 doesn't quite pull as well in the upper rev range, and the engine seems to rev more freely overall, wait until your tank is almost empty (when the computer says 20ks or so left) and fill it up with 98 to see if you can notice the difference, especially near redline... :P

Thumbs up Got mine coming in 2 weeks.

Manual Pure Silver CL Hatch + Smooth + Safety
Build May 06, On the boat for delivery Mid June in Melbourne
$23.9k drive away.

You can save some $ by using a broker (see sponsor above ..v.happy, no dealing with "sales" suits), being patient on delivery, choosing a common color, flexible as to which dealer delivers....
