What part of SE Florida are you in? I'm in Miami and only aware of stations with E85.

I doubt you'll find that at a pump, but you can probably find a distributor and order cans of it.

*****I guess we are lucky. Several of our gas stations here in our area, mostly near race tracks sell 5 gallon cans of 100 and 104 unleaded as well as methanol. We also have a relatively close by station that sells it at the pump as well (Sunoco), but you need to fill an approved container (I think..) vs just pumping it directly into your car. I buy the cans sometimes for my race car, and have dumped a few gallons in the Benz before to play with tunes and do dyno work testing with my upgraded turbos, etc.. If the tune is written to handle the extra octane by increasing boost with proper AFR the car is just monstrous and will roast the tires off the rim if you let it even from a roll, with the traction control mitigated. I guess it's cheap fun until you break something, then it is just gets really expensive.

I was surprised at how cheap the stuff is (if you bring your own container..) now that gas prices are so high in general.. It's more than premium unleaded, but not that much more as it used to be. Screenshot below. I pay about $5.50 a gallon for premium fuel here in my area so it's not like the race gas is that much more compared to the olden days when gas was under $2 a gallon and we were paying $5-$6 a gallon for race gas then (Cam 2 leaded..).

There is also still I think Torco and VP Race fuels sold, but I am not sure about the octane on those brands as we don't have a local supply for them like we do from Sunoco. Sunoco is big around here.

Pollito Loco, the restaurant is also pretty good eating after you buy your race gas... It's right next door to the station that sells the fuel. Fast fuel, but not so fast and crazy good food! Win/Win.
