Yes, 89 - and it does well. They recommend 89 for all except M cars and supercharged Minis. Both our cars do well, as did my '05 3.0 before I totaled it. When at high altitude in Colorado, or in the midwest, where ALL the gas has ethanol added, I used 91. But back here on the "flats", it's 89 all the way.

Here in the Buffalo, NY area, 91 is 12 to 15 cents more per gallon than 89, so it can make a diff. Right now, 89 is 2.53/gal.
