Your car will run on it, but its not good for it whatsoever.

You should be running on Premium Unleaded

95oct is minimum for FTOs. 98 is all good.
but it dosent hurt to pump e10 once in a while, they just wont get more mileage out of it. meaning you wont get any better value out of it.

That is very debatable. There have been numerous reports that the e10 IS causing premature wear on components such as seals. Personally I wouldnt waste my time with it, to save a few cents.
