One thing to consider is it's reasonably well documented that some super has no ethanol at all.
In testing Texaco and BP were actually E0.

I'm sure you're right, the car will run better, the higher octane will iron out small irregularities in running allow a lower advance, etc, our local garage years ago was only 1p difference in price sadly not now so the cheapest fuel goes in our elderly Mazda(07) and Fiat(09) both of which seem fine with it, now my old 95 2.2 Accord Aerodeck SEi ( oh I mis it ) when really pushed would tinkle/pink, but not with 99 octane.Well after three fills with Shell V Power I reckon my 1.4 Sport runs better and accelerates quicker than when I bought it and used regular E5. I’ll be sticking with premium fuel where possible.
Putting the fuel type aside, what a fabulous town car the 500 is. It may be seen as a girl‘s car by many but I am too old to care and I bloody love it.I'm sure you're right, the car will run better, the higher octane will iron out small irregularities in running allow a lower advance, etc, our local garage years ago was only 1p difference in price sadly not now so the cheapest fuel goes in our elderly Mazda(07) and Fiat(09) both of which seem fine with it, now my old 95 2.2 Accord Aerodeck SEi ( oh I mis it ) when really pushed would tinkle/pink, but not with 99 octane.
My 2013 Twinair has run on 98RON since I bought it so I can't really say how it would perform with anything less. Some people will be looking down on the 500 as a 'girly' car but, like you, I love it. Mine's all black and chrome so I don't get too much of that.Well after three fills with Shell V Power I reckon my 2009 1.4 Sport runs better and accelerates quicker than when I bought it and used regular E5.
