I will use premium.. it was JUST a question as I have a very knowlegeble friend in fuel production (while it is aviation fuel, 100LL) he knows alot... and he explained that motor fuels are "virtually" all the same.

Yep, and BMW owns equity in all major oil production companies and so it recommends using premium fuel to make some extra money on a side.
