Fuel for E430

Hi I recently purchased a E430 last month and was wondering if 93 octane is safe for the engine.

93 Octane is safe for any car, just not necessary. Our car calls for a minimum of 91 octane but going higher won't hurt. If I fill up with 93, sometimes I"ll top off when half full with 87 to blend and safe a few bucks. Now there's a .60 difference in price per gallon between regular and premium. It adds up.
