If you’re not driving your car because of storage. Make sure you throw some fuel stabilizer in the tank. It won’t matter what octane the gas has if it’s not treated it will break down over time and make the engine run like S#!T.
If you are only filling up the car a couple times during the driving season it wouldn’t hurt to throw a can in the gas tank with each fill. I have been doing this for years with seasonal drivers and have had no issues. Stabilizer is cheap engine repair is expensive.

No offense taken in the least.
I did start her up 2x week for ~15 minutes and ran her around the block once a week when the roads were dry. She has actually only been "sitting" for 6 weeks while I was recovering from foot surgery (left foot, manual trans.), but, she's also not a DD. Strictly only on Fridays to work during Spring, Summer, early Fall, weekends and holidays.
Good advice, however.
