Reply to comment by segfaultxr7 in Getgo gas no longer listed on the Top Tier website. Did they drop their certification? by Confident_End_3848

What kind of car do you drive that recommends it, is it higher-end?

I totally get it for people who buy high-end cars and have to put in like 93 octane. At that point though I consider it a niche/enthusiast kind of thing though. Like a coworker drives something like that, and he's a gear head customizing stuff under the hood that is way over my head. Nothing wrong with that.

But if I bought a new Camry and I had to put "special" fuel in it, that would be a deal breaker for me.

No, just a Civic, but it does have a turbo GDI engine. The manual discusses it on page 541.

Incidentally, Toyota recommends it as well. From page 590 of the 2023 Camry manual:

> Toyota strongly recommends the use of Top Tier Detergent Gasoline. For more information on Top Tier Detergent Gasoline and a list of marketers, please go to the official website www.toptiergas.com

The price difference is something like 3 cents a gallon, nowhere near the expense of 93. And it's not like the engine will explode if you fill up with non-TT gas, it's just advisable over the long run.
