Do this. I can also get it at about $12 per from my local dealer after the CCA discount. The retail price from all sources has increased over the last few years--I used to have to put a liter in around every 1000 miles on my E60 M5 when I had it!

When I recently priced getting a few bottles from a discount mail order source like Turner, the discount was more than lost by the high shipping cost. This probably only works when a place like Turner is running a free shipping promo.
