I use mobil 1 in everything I drive allready, I was hoping they would put it in the Camaro. We will just have to watch the oil change guys to make sure they don't spin off the tires while they are at it!! Anyone spins the tires it will be me!!!

Has a v6 owner received their Camaros yet? Thought it's been all V8s.
I'm curious myself... as I wait...

That's old school. These newer engines come from the factory with synthetic.
Not a problem.
