I just went and picked up some Nissan Ester Oil from the dealership. That stuff is freakin' expensive -- $11.99 a quart. Oh well. I only plan to use it to about 5000 miles, then I'll switch over to Motul 300V. Mind you, Motul is even more expensive ($30 per 2 quart container. But with Motul I don't mind the price so much, as it's an ester-based synthetic, whereas the Nissan stuff is just a conventional oil with an ester additive.
