I use redline...my logic is this: $30K + car. Price difference between M1 and Redline ~$5.

Oil change every 5k miles, 100,000/5000=20

6 quarts per oil change

20 oil changes @ 6 qts = 120 qts total.

120 x 5 = $600 price difference in oil between Redline and Mobil 1 over 100,000 mi on a $30,000+ high performance car. Seriously, do you really give that much of a fvck? That's a little more than my monthly payment on the car.
