New reccommended oil?????

Last Thursday I got an oil change at a Nissan dealer. I have been getting oil changes at this dealership all along & they have been putting 5w30 Mobil 1 in. This time when I looked over the paperwork I noticed that 0w20 full synthetic Nissan oil had been used. I questioned this & was told that 0w20 was the NEW recommended oil for the 370Z.
Well I headed on home but couldn't get the idea of 0w20 being used. I fired an E-mail off to Nissanusa & asked the question if 0w20 was now the recommended oil for the 370Z. That was a total waste of time. Their answer was, go to your local dealership & ask them.

I've been spending lots of time searching the internet on the topic & am finding that more manufactures are going to either 0w20 or 5w20 but haven't found anything about a Nissan change.

WTF
