If you really want to get a killer oil, just hop on over to your local Ferrari dealership as ask for some of the Shell Helix that they make for Ferrari’s wiz-bang cars; really nice product that sells for around $100 per liter………..

This reminds me of a funny story .... Quite a few years ago I owned an Alfa Romeo Spider. Yeah, I know - lets not even go there. Any way, the same dealership also sold Ferraris. To make a long story short, the dealership loved to "tout" the Agip brand of oil. Interestingly, depending upon which parts counter you were standing in front of (Alfa or Ferrari) determined the price of the oil. For example, if you were at the Alfa counter the price was $$$$. If you were at the Ferrari counter the price was $$$$$$. Both for the exact same oil.
