Dark blue bottle?  At that price it's a steal!  I've
been running it for about 500 mi. now, the car starts
goods in the cold, and haven't had any ticking lifters
yet.  Can't notice any real difference in running
between the Mobil 1, but I will say this, try and
avoid making a mess with the stuff.  It's unlike any
oil, it's some of the stickiest sh*t I've ever seen. 
Once it get's on something, it takes about three times
longer than normal oil to clean it up.  Something I
like to see inside my engine:)
