As I understand it, lower octane gas will not harm the engine. The Trionic engine management system will detect knock and lower the performance envelope to avoid engine damage. You will get better performance with the higher octane, but if you are happy with performance with mid grade or regular, you won't harm the engine using it.
I suggest you try all three grades, and satisfy youself. You might want to try switching between mid and high grade every other time you fill up.
