the car is designed for the use of regular fuel. you may get slightly better performance using a higher octane rating (because the knock sensors control
timing, with higher octane the computer can put a little more advance in the timing). I feel that the performance gains vs. price difference in the cost of fuel do not justify the use of premium fuel.
