It is NOT regular oil, and it is not the same price as regular oil.

So your local dealership was not misleading you or trying to screw you.

I was at the dealer today to have them install my front license plate bracket (see other thread) and asked them about the oil. They refered me to the above and talked about the ester oil. They charge $15 a quart and $11 to change it, so to me that's perfectly reasonable. Obviously you can run whatever you want in there, but I am fine with paying an extra $100 or so a year for the good stuff. After all I just bought a $40k car.

I found this thread over at myg37 if anybody is interested.

Any one know any thing about the Infiniti Ester motor oil? - Page 3 - MyG37
