Higher octane rating is specifically for engines that requires it for that thing they call "engine knocking" or detonation. As for the Honda Fit, it says in the manual to use fuel with octane rating of 87. Hence, to save money and unnecessary fuel particles, go for the regular (octane rating 87). Lastly, higher octane rating does not also make your engine cleaner -- they are all the same.
