I know this isn't answering the question, but might I suggest doing the math on how much a year you are actually going to save by skimping on gas? It might surprise you how little it is even as a daily driver.

I didn't spend the money to buy a new 2008 Corvette just to put something a "little bit cheaper" in it... If I can't afford the good stuff (high octane) then I need to buy another car and that my friends is not going to happen. Spend the few extra dollars...

The issue is not the price of high octane gasoline. The real issue is the price of gasoline.
Here's one for you penny pinchers. 87 octane @ $4/gal. 93 2 $4.20/gal.
1/2 & 1/2 = 90 octane @ $4.10. Save one dollar and sixty cents per tankful and not risk long term damage to your $50+K car.
