I did a little experiment years ago.  I found I got better gas mileage if I ran 87 as 
compared to if I ran 91.  My routine at that time was very set back then so i made 
sure everything was the same for the experiment.  I found I got about 29-31 mpg with 
91 while I got 35-37 on 87.  Those numbers sound way off but they are true.  I did 
this over a 2 month period.  I used the same gas station (the one i worked at) and 
basically drove the exact same way everyday.  If you read the owners manual for these 
cars it states that these cars are designed for around 87 octane.  I will try to dig 
mine out tonite to verify this.
