Side effect of Ethanol?

I just filled up with V-Power racing.

I cannot believe how much Shell are charging for V Power Racing.

I filled up today with V power for $1.51 / L and the cost of V Power Racing advertised on the pump was $1.83 / L. An extra 32c / L for 100 Octane vs 98 Octane - just doesn't add up in my books.

Also, my Z is an 03 model and cannot put ethanol fuel in it anyway. But even if I could, I wouldn't at that price.

I must also add that the ethanol blended fuels yield less milage to the litre, so any saving in an E10 based fuel is lost cause you have to use more of it to cover the same distance.
