Would be interesting finding this information out in the near future. what exact fuel requirements the car takes. Then can take into consideration how much the yearly cost of ownership of the car would be.

^This.
The rest of us get 98 RON aka 93 (RON+MON)/2 at some stations. It's a messed up system really since that does not give a real octane value but a contrived average between two different octane metrics. I hope when we switch to the metric system that we switch to RON for octane. It's one of the many minor details that piss me off about this country that doesn't even register with most Americans.
It's the same fuel quality either way, we even have a few 100 (RON+MON)/2 octane pumps but rarely. It's the E85 that is the special stuff though. But availability is the big issue. CARB needs to stop cutting pennies to save dead bunnies.
