You need a tune before you can use E85.
Pro: It'll make your car faster. Con: It'll make your car more thirsty.

To be clear, absolutely not without a tune. This car is not "flex fuel" aware and you could run dangerously lean. With a tune for E85, no problems. Books already explained the pros/cons of an E85 tune.
