But I want to take a step back and ask why you're even considering putting the cheap stuff in. Would you bring a child into the world without intending to provide for his/her nutritional needs? Or would you adopt a pet without intending to adequately feed it? Only irresponsible trailer trash does either of those things, right? So don't get a sports car if you don't intend to provide it with the fuel it needs either. Don't be the automotive equivalent of 'Octomom'!
Very well said.....I have always put nothing but 93 octane in all of my cars........it has more additives ....and is well worth the little bit of extra money !!!!
