I had come to this conclusion.  Thanks for reinforcing the cringe in my
wallet!  <grin>

This is probably the Castrol GT-LMA that you are talking about.  I like
it alot.  Much cheaper than ATE Super Blue and much easier to find than
Pentosin DOT 4.

All I can say is I'm jealous.  (Of having the S4, that is.)  For tires,
I'd really recommend checking out the ongoing thread on the merits of
the Dunlop D60A2's.  'nuff said.

Simply treat her to good dinners, fine wine, and lots of flowers in the
attempt to keep her in this delerious state.  And, tell me . . . . does
she have a sister?
