GF: You spent how much on a gas cap?!

[jdmfish]

And HOW much does a gas cap cost?

1-2% of a purse from CoCo Chanel

I didn’t put a pretty cap on my car…I put a LOCKING cap on it!

 

[tnt_motorsports]

it's likely the least expensive part on the car! lol

Just my $0.02

Looks like it will fit my wife's Audi A4 and my VW Jetta GLI. Same oval thread nub on the cap and stud on the cap to rest it in the hole when fueling the car. Porsche, Audi and VW share some parts.

I have R8 oil and fuel caps somewhere

Love the way it looks!

Worth every penny!

gas caps are so 20th century. all the cool new cars have capless, it always feel so old school when I put gas in my wifes car that still has a cap.

When my wife wants to give me crap for what to her is a frivolous purchase but not to me, I point to the walk in closet she has that is full of clothes and shoes that has only been worn once.

Or shoes that have never have been worn !

I never say a thing, lest she stroll through my shop.

$139 does not seem that bad to me. Nice!!!

Does the click sound and feel like a Rolex Submariner?

Yes, and the P0420 code that followed was from something else

p.s. since we are full serve only, wonder what runs through the mind of the Costco attendant when they feel that precision in their hands

 

[John105]

it's $184 list but you can get it discount for $140

I recently replaced both the GM and the Lexus with OE. The Lexus killed me I paid $24. But the GM imho was more reasonable at $13. Seriously the Costco attendant was having a hard time with the Lexus, no click after 18 years. So I did the GM as well as it was a weak click. remember, as it was mentioned above this cap feels like a Rolex Submariner....precise!

Someone would buy a decorative gas cap which lives behind a fuel filler door where it'll never be seen?

It’s seen every time you fill up.

Given the price of some OEM plastic, the $140 for this nicely made one doesn’t seem outrageous.

I'm sure all of your purchases are 100% pragmatic.

Irony is that men do not care about that kind of thing. It is other women that police each other on that kind of stuff.

Best not wear anything white after this Labor Day!

OP, love the car and color!
