In our both 95 we use exclusively 93 octane. I do not have experience with other grades in those cars, but I get 22.5mpg mixed roads, and my wife gets 18-19mpg in city+lots of idling in the wagon. Both 2.3LPTs get 35-39 highway with cruize engaged on long trips.
Two observations:
Once I had a loaner '04 95 ARC and filled it up with mid-grade 91octane Exxon gas The loss of power was dramatic.
I just filled the first time my own car with 93octane V-Power from Shell and the increase in power was noticable from the Exxon93 gas I ussually buy.
