Sure you might not get the full performance of the engine, but as stated elsewhere on the previous page, the car has a knock sensor. It's purpose is to detect knock and retard ignition timing if present. I wouldn't lose any sleep over it. On occasion, if i'm doing all interstate driving, i'll fill up half or 3/4 with 87, and alternate between the two during the trip.
