Default Do you like your CX7 - what gas do you use?

Hello, my wife really wants a CX7. I test drove one with her and it seems like a nice car, but I have read different things regarding the gas you burn in it. Can you just tell me if you like yours and do you burn regular 87 octane unleaded in yours or do you use a higher octane? Thanks

Well consider that if you use 87 in your car and it is not a 2009 you risk damage to your engine. '

Do not trust lot lizards who want a sale and care less that you will blow up your car later.

Your mileage will drop so that the savings per gallon is more than offset by the drop in mileage while your engine tries to survive by backing down timing and boost to survive.

If you wanted to run regular why did you buy a car with a turbo and high compression?

You should not buy a Lion and try to make it a Tabby.....
