The ethanol question is another good argument for buying only Top Tier-certified fuel. One of the standards is no more than 10% ethanol.
I hope no one believes the rather irresponsible posts above about E85 (85% ethanol). Check your BMW owner's manual, which states up to 10% is OK, but anything over is not. Only certain cars, including many GM models have been modified to run on E85. There are no BMW models certified for E85, at least not in the U.S.
