I would think 87 Octane. Actually I'd be willing to bet it.

When I bought my G35, the dealer had filled up with premium (what's recommended by Infiniti), but ran my engine for like 45 minutes!

It should be filled up with premium (the recommended fuel).

Is premium recommended? I thought part of the appeal was they ran on 87??? I know my vette did but that was years ago.

As far as I know all LSX powered vehicles (LS1, LS2, LS3) are recommended to use Premium fuel.

Premium is not required, only recommended on the SS, which is why some will try to skimp.

You can run a Corvette on 87, so I don't know why it would be different on the SS. Chances are you'll get 87. It's free though, no need to complain.
