Default (regular gas vs premimum gas) ----- Honda Accord V6 or Acura TL?

Which car should I get?
2002 Acura TL V6 225HP
or
2002 Honda Accord V6 200HP

The only thing keeping me from getting the TL is that it uses Premium gasoline, and it will cost me approx $160/year more to drive. is that a good trade off for 25 HP and the luxuries of acura? does Premium make the car last longer and drive better? will it result in higher MPG than the regular gas accord, offsetting the higher price of Premium? help is appreciated. Thanks!
my friend just said the TL's 5 spd results in higher mpg for the TL, so does this offset the Premium gas Premiums a bit? if so, how much?
never mind, i just checked the MPG ratings and it looks like they are the same. so the 5spd is already calculated into it i believe. disregard the last comment

Both cars should run fine on regular unleaded. I have a 96 Tahoe with a V8 and it runs fine on regular. My mechanic also told me that unless you start experiencing pings and stuff in the engine with regular that it should work good with any car.
