Default RM2.704/litre petrol effect(s) on your Coupe

Dear HCC members,
with the new petrol price that soared up to RM2.704 per litre, there is no doubt that this price hike will affect our daily life from all angle.
Let's share your thoughts and experiences here on how the recent petrol price hike affects you and your ride and how you handle the situation.

My coupe 1.8 is the highest cc car I own (other than 1.6A Waja and 1.3 Myvi Manual).

Since I bought it last July and got it up to decent roadworthiness in September, I have been using it as my daily drive to work.

Now I may have to reconsider, not sure how much less fuel the 1.6 Waja consumes. Other than that, I may have to be very light on the pedals....so if you guys and gals see a slow red coupe on the bukit jalil/kinrara road, that would be me...haha

I guess this is the largest effect of the fuel price hike.
Sim is not flooring the accelerator pedal anymore.
A miracle done by the fuel price hike. LOL.

I thought your fuel expenses are being subsidized by your company?!
