Does any specific model year or all years require or recommend premium fuel according to the owner's manual? Thanks!

I've owned LS-400's and ES-300's, and never used anything but regular unleaded. I've never heard a "ping" yet. Save your money. Feeding it Premium is NOT a treat to the car, it is only to prevent pre-ignition pinging.
