If your fuel prices ever get high (and trust me, they are CHEAP at the moment), you'll realise that the difference in price between normal and higher grade fuel is very little, especially when you factor in the improved economy and performance that higher octane fuel gives you.

Why buy a sports car if you intend to penny-pinch over the fuel? - it's only a few cents difference.

ps - I'd never dream of using lower grade fuel in my car.
Very true being that the UK pays by the litre vs. gallon. Along with that, I was not implying that anyone put lower grade fuel into their vehicle, as stated earlier that this was the information given to me by the Infiniti newsletter. I've had the G35 for about 2.5 years and I've never ever gone lower than Premium grade even during the ridiculously priced fuel phase.
