I just recently bought an 06 SI with 28K miles. The person I bought the car from didnt seem like she knew a whole lot about cars. I am curious to know, if the car was ran on 87 regular gas.....would I be able to tell mechanically wise?

I have driven the car for about 500 miles and have been using only 93. My car seems to run okay.

Say if she did run the car on 87 gas,
1)would i be able to tell now?
2)and is this screw the car later down the road?
3)could there be any premature wear?
