No worries! Yeah, 98 RON is about 93 or 94 here -- about the maximum sold in the States. So it looks like the Euro cars required a couple more octane points than the U.S. versions due to the higher compression.
We still have to put in the highest grade (and most expensive) fuel here, because the next lowest at most places is only 89 octane, which is too low for the 911. Of course, it's a bit cheaper here than in Europe. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="wink.gif" />
