Good find, interesting read. Hmmmm now to go Mobil 1 or Motul 8100???
Apparently mobil 1 is a class III oil now, following castrol, so go Motul 8100, as its a class IV/V full synthetic oil.
I was reading somewhere that referred to BMW's not doing so well with Royal Purple because it doesn't meet BMW specifications.. this article sums it up.
My service manager at the dealership tells me to NOT go sync oil..... I forgot the exact reasons he gave, but with 3 oil changes done on my car..... what do I do for the 4th?

motul 300v > motul 8100 > mobil 1.

i waited about 5000 miles to let the engine break in.
Ok... So what is the FINAL choice of the Best Synthetic for this car??? I was a big fan of Mobil 1 when I had my 04' G35.... I'm close to 13k on my G37s now and I'd like to go Synthetic!
