Default Whats your favorite motor oil?

Ladies and gentlemen of Club Lexus,

I am very particular in regards to keeping my car in the best running condition as possible (obviously...)

I just wanted to hear peoples opinions on what oils they use for their motor.

Personally, I prefer Eneos 0w20 Full synthetic or Royal Purple.

Please vote!!

Thanks

right now and for the next 5 years my favorite is what ever Lexus Prepaid Maintenance Plan is putting in the car. I'll worry about what to do once that contract is up.

the only synthetic that Lexus uses is 0w-20, the RCF do not use synthetic, I don't know what the RC350 uses, but if it is anything other than 0w-20, it is conventional oil.

The RCs indeed use synthetic 0w-20 from the factory.

cool, I wonder why the RC-F's don't.. probably because Lexus figures if you can afford an $80K car you can afford a $300 oil change every 5,000 miles.
