Im mean come'on man. I understand the 1st gens had them but, Idk its just REALLY CHEAP looking.

Im sure 99% of car enthusiasts wouldnt consider that a "small detail". Small details are more like; how touchy the radio buttons are, the sound of the turn signals, sound of the horn, softness of steering wheel, texture of interior materials.....etc....

check these out

in a ls1 camaro test Horsepower TV picked up 9 RWHP just by changing fluids

Trucks TV did a temperature test on a truck and by changing to royal purple they got a 10 degree drop in transmission and 10 degree drop in the rear end as well

here is a cool anti-wear vid where they compare mobil 1 fully synthetic 5w30 to royal purple 5w30 fully sythentic

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EC2sn...rom=PL&index=3

i always used mobil 1 fully sythentic 5w30 in every vehicle ive owned and recently in the suv i bought my wife a new mazda cx-7 i changed the oil from mobil 1 5w30 fully sythentic to royal purple 5w30 fully sythentic and i noticed the vehicle starts quicker then it did in the past..... this is a newer car it just turned 18,000 miles on it and has never had slow starting just like a normal newer car would start but now its starts almost instantly as soon as i turn the key the engine is on, i dont have to wait the 1 second it usually takes

im thinking since it reduces friction so much that its easier to start and takes less power to turn the engine resulting in better mpg and more power

anyone else have royal purple stories???

Apparently they created micro vortexes that aided the flow of air over the "hips" of the car which reduced drag by a coefficient of .037.
