As an M6 owner, I am an expert at gas stations and refueling
I have been to Esso twice over the past 2 years where they ran out of 87 and offered the 91 at the 87 pricing. If they just allowed people to run 87 octane, they would run into product liability issues.
So if you are confident you used the right nozzle and pressed the right selector button, you just got a good deal because they ran out of 87.
If you are paranoid, don't go full throttle for half a tank and then get some Sunoco 94 to mix up the gas in the tank....but if you are confident in your nozzle choice, I am almost sure you came out ahead.
