Your sarcasm illustrates how little you've looked into this If you want to be adventurous, you could run E85 year round. Since the N54 was designed to run on real pump gas (minimum 91 octane, 93 if available), I don't have a problem running E85 when the (warm) weather supports it.

Also, here's an article how E85 actually has a "winter formula" for states that experience cold winter's actually switch over to what would be E70
