Pemex gas is fine, probably better than most US stations, but their bathrooms can be another story, good luck.

 

Back in the day, I had a 1991 BMW M5 and I upgraded it with a Dinan ecu chip which required 93 octane only. In those days the best gas they had on the pump in mexico was 89 octane so I simply brought a trunk full of 102 octane booster with me.

I will never forget driving down the "devil's spine" on my way from Matamoros to Mexico City and up there over 10,000' getting my *** handed to me by a Turbo Dodge Spirit I met along the way - it was my first encounter with the superiority of turbos in high elevation

When I hit sea level in Alcapolco my power was back

It was a amazing journey I took through mexico I was down there for two months just driving around

However, these days I would not feel secure to travel in Mexcio for such great distances which is sad as Mexico is an amazing place

Best of luck

PS - look out for the pot holes !

 

Mexico? Good thing you have a MANUEL transmission.

 

Don't worry about the gas in Mexico. My poor 2004 Evo has lived it's entire life on a diet of 87-89 octane gasoline, which is the best we can get at the pump in my little 3RD World country of Honduras. I would be happy to run PEMEX 92 instead of the cr*p that we get here at the pump.

 

driving in Mexico is fun.

 

Word of advice. Carry some cash wit you incase you get pulled over... Trust me money speaks alot louder down there. Have FUN

 

P.S. Don't drink Mexican water!

 

no harm, its good
