I run E-85!.............Hahaha just kidding I run nothing but Shell V-Power 93.
But I found this on the net awhile back.
And I find it interesting that Dodge, Chevrolet, and Ford all use Chevron gasoline when testing new vehicles for emissions regulations (even though all three companies have to have the Chevron gas shipped almost 500 miles as there are no Chevron stations in Michigan).

It's always premium, and I mostly try to use Chevron premium, and yep, not a garage queen, hell, she got all wet in New Orleans today.

Have always used Premium but most any brand. Currently have a tankful of Shell 93 with a can of Techron trying to get the gas gage 100%. Shell from here on out!
The car is also starting to run better so the no-name Premiums must have more undesirable stuff that plugs everything up.

I use whatever is under 3 bucks a gallon.
I find Shell V Power at just under 3 bucks in Bayonne, NJ or Sunoco on the turnpike. Everywhere else it's mid grade to keep it under my self imposed limit.
The car doesn't seem to care.

I try to run 91 or 93 Sunoco, Shell, Exxon or BP and when I am close to one of the few stations around here that sells 100% gas I always stop and top off.
I get better gas millage on the 100% stuff.
I had to put 89 in it one time when premium was not available late at night on a trip but only enough to get me to the next exit.
I also run a bottle of Lucas fuel injector cleaner in it once a month.

You've got to be kidding! I can't; or maybe I can, believe that two people would not really care that they are not putting the recommended fuel in their prized possession.
I wonder how often they change their oil or perform regular scheduled maintenance? Hey maybe that can be the next poll!

here we go again,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,someone who has a sports car, probable spent good money on it, wants it to look and drive good, annnnnnndddddddddddddddd, then wants to cheap out on the GAS. 
What the frack, you want to ruin your car by putting mid or low grade gas in it, when the manual and the gas cap state PREMIUM only. Then go ahead, We don't need no stinking poll. Those who value their cars use premium only. GAAZOOKS.............
