Yes.....Non-S models run fine on regular fuel.
Not true. I've put regular gas in my 2003 mini S from day one - and it runs fine.
---
reason why the S model needs premium gas is because of the super charger. theirs a higher compression ratio.
they will start to "knock" after a while. if u run it hard then I'll degrade the engine much faster.

My Mini S has 82K miles on it. I drive it very hard. It's never knocked. Runs smooth as can be... and I've NEVER put premium gas in it. No need to waist the money!

Does a Pontiac Bonneville ssei burn premium gas?
Sorta. You have to run premium gas in it at all times. Failure to run 91 octane or above will result in the car getting very bad gas mileage, run very badly in general, and can damage the engine. It technically burns any type of gas that would be used in it, but it does require premium gas to operate. That's why it states on the dash premium fuel only.
