Oh man, you sure schooled me Mr. Copy Pasta!

That is like comparing the supra oil change to a motorcycle. A NSX is $100,000 more than a Supra.

Either way, this is a thread about Supra oil changes. Not a $155,000 NSX with a cosworth engine, or a TV show from twenty years ago.

Okay, I'll spell it out for you:
I was comparing costs because the amount of labor to change the oil in an NSX is quite a bit more than that when changing oil in a Supra, yet the cost is not that much different from that mentioned by the OP. In fact, the average cost for the NSX is about $390 - $450.

Realizing that Richard revived a three year old thread related to pricing of an ever fluctuating commodity, and now Bryan & Dave are using it as another arena to bicker in

What oil should I use in my NSX?

There's a guy on YouTube that compares different oils, everybody should check it out prior to purchasing oil. Search for "Project Farm"

There’s enough oil knowledge on this forum to fill multiple lifetimes. No need to go searching on YouTube…

Todd's channel is a dangerous rabbit-hole to enter. Once you do, you'll be checking to see if he has a review on anything/everything before you buy it. Sending some money his way is also an easy thing to justify. He's too likeable, especially for us fellow mechanical nerds. His lack of bias is legendary. I will neither confirm nor deny owning a shirt or two and some stickers from his merch store..

? It was sarcasm. Didn’t think sarcasm font was necessary given the tens of thousands of oil threads we’ve had. Slight exaggeration…
