$3.00 + in LA, and I had to buy a car that uses premium!  Wonder how much
damage I'll do to run it on regular?

Most people don't realize that premium gas is just regular gas
with some anti-knock compounds added. Modern engines have
anti-knock sensors, so if you accidentally fill up with gas that is
lower in octane than your engine requires, the computer will
retard the timing to take care of it. You won't get all the horse-
power your engine is rated for, but there should be no damage.
