I run 87 every now and then(when 91 is 2 high) and it doesn't hurt. I get better milage, the only downside is it's a bit more hesitant on take offs if it's a manual.

QUOTE (richee3 @ Apr 4, 2012 - 8:42 PM) BEAMS is great fun, perfect for a DD. The gas mileage I'm averaging is only slightly better than a 5S, though I'm sure it could be doing better. I doubt if BEAMS will be as much fun as your Alltrac, but if you've got the money, I definitely recommend the BEAMS for a DD. Yeah! the Alltrac is definitely much more fun, but I also love my 6th gen. The Allrac is just my weekend car which I am in the process of swapping it to 4th Gen Caldina 3S.
