FWIW BMW enthusiasts generally swear by Shell and Chevron, with ever-so-slight preference for the latter. I do go out of my way to fill up at top-tier gas stations, but I mostly use Chevron because (a) there's a station that's convenient for me, (b) they're just about the only one that still gives free air, (c) in my area they're generally as much as 10 cents cheaper than Shell (second-most convenient).
