I plan on keeping my 04 RX8 for a long time, only 19k miles on it so
far.  Does anybody have any recommendations for oil?  To date only the
dealer has ever changed the oil, but I am getting near the end of the
factory warranty, and I am too cheap to continue going there if it will
cost me dealer prices.  Thanks in advance.

I use Idemitsu Rotary engine oil in my RX8 but it is not
inexpensive at close to $9 a quart.

My second choice would be Mobile 1 full synthetic bought
by the case from Walmart at around $6 a quart.

I have 24,000 on my 2004 RX8. No problems except I flooded it once
and could not get it started. The dealer flashed the memory
in the computer and it did not happen again.
