What? No car?

Yes. Owning and maintaining a car in Taiwan is 很貴. There's the renting of a parking space (although sometimes it is included in the apartment price), the price of gasoline, registration, upkeep, and so on. There's also the hideous traffic and the folks who "key" your car.

11/16/2007 (source www.taiwantoday.tw):
- 1 liter of 95 unleaded gasoline = US$0.94
- 1 gallon of 95 unleaded gasoline = US$3.56
- To fill up a 13 gallon (49.27 liters) gas tank would cost US$46.31

(Note: 1 gallon = 3.79 liters)

As of 8/16/2009, the price of gas in Atlanta is US$2.49 per gallon. Filling up a 13 gallon gas tank would cost US$32.37
