Now go look at some Bosch Platinum +4's and tell me what the difference is, other than the price tag.
And FWIW, my dad loves using **** like this and they never last. His latest kick was the E3 Diamond fire and they failed all the time (moms Turbo PT Cruiser). The last one I pulled out was missing the entire electrode and ceramic insulator. I told him to stop buying that crap and stick some NGK's in there lol He's lucky it didn't hurt the turbine

Bingo! The fact that Bosch has managed for so long to market the Bosch +4 as a "premium" plug just highlights how little the average consumer understands about anything technical.
