Any gas stations advertising non-ethanol 87, 89 or 90/93 grades?

Thanks,

Ethanol-free gas stations in the U.S. and Canada a useful list

Your CR-Z was designed to use gas with ethanol.

The car can use gas with ethanol, yes but mpg will go up if the gas doesnt have ethanol mixed in

HI Diversion,

Muddy's link is the one I used awhile back to find 100% gas stations.
In the Honda CR-Z owners manual page 231 reads...

Quote:

Unleaded gasoline, pump octane number 87 or higher

I can get more mpg out of it, yes, it is more expensive but I want only the best gas in my car.

Have fun in your HCR-Z I do.

Looks like the only one on that list I'll ever be near is in Cambridge, OH.

Guess that will be my designated fill-up spot on the drive to visit my parents.
I'm curious what kind of difference I would see so I'll have to try at least once.

edit:
Oh wait ... it's at a Marina. Probably only for boats.

I have just over 1000 miles now on 2012 crz, tried non ethanol 90 octane. There is definently a difference in performance and mpg. If you can find it try it. It will make you a believer in pure gas. Running 3.95 a gal. In Tampa. Had the car to 110 mph. Didnt really want to push anymore, but any know the top end on these cars? Looking forward to meet other crz owners at the meets.
