For a near stock (bolt-on) car I agree. For high horsepower applications, Ethanol is a lot cheaper to get the higher octane ratings and a cooler charge. E85 is approximately 107 octane, E75 is 103 and E70 is 100 octane. unleaded 100 octane gasoline cost anywhere from $4.50 - $5.50 per gallon. Let alone the lower EGTs from ethanol.
