Gasoline to put on IS250
I know the IS recommends premium fuel.. is it still ok to use regular fuel??? Is that going to have any affect on the engine performance?

You can put whatever you like. But I use premium fuel. IMHO, I figure you might as well use the best for the IS, considering the price you paid for it. A few more dollars difference between premium and regular is not that big of a deal.

The compression level is very high on the 250, 12 to 1. Use premium, it's only three bucks a tank more.
