There was a nice thread on SolaraGuy about these plugs, http://www.solaraguy.com/viewtopic.php?t=39037

I may test them yet myself. but I came to the conclusion that since I am already burning Pemex gas as best as I can, not much more I can burn, and soon I will be back in the U.S., but willing to give them a try back there.

Platinums last 3x as long all things being equal in my experience, bottom line. I'm still on the originals at 85k with little decline in performance or gas mileage. Copper plugs at even half that mileage? ha. The price is robbery though I can agree with that. Copper is a better conductor than platinum as well, something to think about. Changing my plugs every 30k doesn't sound too appealing, I drive too much.
