    Never heard of that brand.

    Castro synthetic 0w-40 meets that specification and is branded as Euro spec.

    Why would you risk running such a generic covers all kind of economy oil in a ferrari. Or any car for that matter. Cheap oil only is cheap until it causes engine damage. Mechanics advice.

    With all the well known high quality oils being sold at cheap prices in places like Walmart and Amazon why in the world do you want to experiment with a product no one has ever heard of?

    Thanks for the feedback. Looks like no one is really familiar with the brand. I never heard of it either, that's why I posted the question.

    The price delta on these Euro Spec oils isn't that big given the costs of these cars to begin with, so it's not a point of going cheap to save a few bucks, but to understand if there are any technical differences between these oils or more marketing.

    Ooops. My bad. I meant "Castrol"... but the smart guys knew that.

    My local Walmart has five-quart jugs of Castrol Edge Synthetic 0W-40 for $22.97 each.... and you'll need two.
