Yes.
Whole life? Yeah right.
And if a used car took more than one fill up's worth of gas while sitting on a used car lot, then there's bigger issues than just "bad gas".
My point is, regular 87 octane is not the evil entity people make it out to be. The ECU will adjust timing to compensate for the extra knock. No harm done unless you attempted to set a new lap record at the Nurburgring with 87 octane during your test drive.

none of us know the circumstance of how the car was driven before, what gas was used or whatever, so could it have been filled with 87 it's whole life? you never know.
Also in the post I replied to you said "once in a while its ok" [to use 87] which grammatically implies that you shouldn't use it all the time, and now you are saying that 87 is fine to use. So since you're all fired up anyway you want to say which one is right?
