I've wondered the same thing. From this bb, previous posts said:
octane mpg/gl peak performance
----------------------------------------
lower better lower
higher lower better
Apparently the extra octane delays ignition, allowing for more compression and using more fuel but provides a consistent burn. The v6 is designed for these higher octane conditions. So I use it.
