Mobil 93 mostly.
When not Mobil, 93 octane from my local (1 mile) convenience store.
In the Accord (same basic engine) I use whatever 87 octane is available and cheap.
I've tried 93 octane in it. I didn't make any noticeable difference. Maybe a little more power. No real change in mileage.

We can only get 91 here at the pumps. I usually just go to Esso because it's close to my house, sometimes I will go to Shell.

^ Like Orchid said we only get 91 here in NB. I usually fill up at bargain barrel Needs Fast Fuel simply because it's nearby where I live plus after putting 91 in my Saab 9-3 for 12+ months from Esso they issued a "Sorry but the 91 you've been paying for was actually 87 this whole time. We cool?" So I don't really go there anymore.

BP 98 only... I tried Shell 98 but the car felt a little sluggish... Have never tried 95 from either supplier...

For me my issue with costco gas is that people say they would always go there for gas cuz it's cheaper, even if that means a little detour from their destination, or like u said wait in line. I find the additional amount of fuel it takes to get costco gas on purpose, I can just pop by a gas station anywhere i see and it will cost the same in the end lol

91 Octane from Wal Mart. $4.15/Gallon. That's the highest i've ever paid in 45 years of driving.
I guess elections really do have consequences.

Normally, Chevron 91 (NV sucks).. but today I had about 2-3 gallons of the Chevron 91 left in the tank, so I put in 5 gallons of 100 from Mobil. Car did feel stronger, but I'm sure it's a placebo.
Although.. I don't normally break traction from just hitting peak boost on a third gear pull (255/40/18 PS4S). Could just be gains from improving the knocky 91 fuel (wouldn't surprise me if it's the same shit CA gets).. idk.

I'm using Chevron 91 as well as I do with my other Honda vehicles. It's been a reliable gasoline to use. No issues and all cars run very smoothly.
Shell is way too overpriced in my area and others are questionable (Valero, Exxon, Rotten Robbies). If you're a Safeway rewards member, you can apply points to knock down price of fuel. I was able to knock my price down by 20 cents per gallon. That saved me about 2-3 dollars per gallon. I hate CA and their prices- we'll be headed over $5 mark for gasoline very soon (and this doesn't included full service like how they do it very well back in Oregon). ?
