I use 91 or higher only in my coupe, I'd expect it to be the same for the new sedan

91

93 isn't available in Calgary except at Husky and my mechanic buddy told me not to use Husky Gas, apparently it's bad for the engine

91 only for mine, it's the highest available in cali. I don't think anything below 91 has ever been in my tank, assuming the dealer didn't cheap out on the first tank.

91 is the highest available in Arizona so that's what I use.

Tip: Only buy gas from these guys, it's better for the health of your engine.

91 here, as that is the highest octane available where I live. I use only 87 in my QX4 though.

The highest "premium" fuel they sell in the KC area (that I am aware of) is BP 92 octane. And most agree that your better off with Quik Trip 91 octane. It's cleaner and "guaranteed"...

Premium is normally considered 91 which is omitted from your poll. That is the recommended grade by Infiniti. 93 is "super premium" or some other acronym.
