If you are using the mid grade or premium grade your just wasting your money.

Exactly! People keep stating Honda specific this and that oil - well, any good fully synth 4T oil is fine, you do not need MB of Honda Pro oil, yet when Honda specifc bog standard fuel, people insist on using premium higher octane fuel :)

Ditto. The manual says 87 octane. No need to get fancy.

It's not worth fretting about, I have the 2013 and it runs just fine on regular gas, anything more is a waste of money

If you'll observe, I have the 2013 model. The manual I referenced is from that model.
