I don't mean to troll, but I've always wondered why this car has to use premium/98 type of fuel when the matter of fact is the engine is not a performance car engine?
Anything special in the boxer engine which requires it to have only premium?

Pardon my ignorance if it seems like a stupid question.

PS - Having read the manual, it says you can use 95 unleaded quality fuel without giving giving adverse effect in driveability/durability... now I'm confused... Then what's the point of giving it 98, apart from the marginally better miles per gallon?
