The best deal I've found recently on Castrol 10w 60 is from Advance Auto. Use coupon code YAY for 15% off making them about $14/liter depending on your tax rate.

I recently stockpiled just about all local inventory simply because it's creeping up in price everywhere.

Local Advanced Auto had it on clearance, $7/qt. Apparently they will no longer be stocking the item.

Agreed, I'm a bit skeptical also, but the price is amazing if it's actually 10W-60!

I picked up a bunch of them from NAPA(enough for at least 3 oil changes), it is indeed the Castrol EDGE Supercar gold bottle.

However these are older stock, some bottles have dust on them, production lot date varies from 2017-2019.

With that being said, since it's unopened bottle they should last indefinitely, so I just keep them in our storage closet.

If you believe in oil having 2-5 years expiration date, you may want to skip NAPA, but if you agree with unopened oil can last basically forever, NAPA is very good deal.

Just ordered! You may have to play around with location, for some reason I couldn't get it from the store closest to me, but could get it the next town over.

When I ordered I couldn't have it shipped to me, but can get it from one of the near by stores no problem…I'm guessing they are clearing all of them out from NAPA

Just wanted to update with my experience from the Napa sale above. This deal turned out to be just a little bit better than advertised. While the Napa link was advertising 1 qt. bottles, I ended up receiving the 1 L gold bottles when I picked it up in the store. My order also contained more current stock dated 2021, not older stock like W12x received.

Nice! May depend on the local stock then, but honestly these are non-organic stuff so they should last a very long time in proper storage anyways

Just a friendly reel-in, does anyone actually have proof this 4 L bottle exists?

If you are trying to save on oil why wouldn't you just order from FCP euro?

Just cleaned out all the NAPA stores near me, ended up getting it for about $6 a bottle. Can't beat that, even if it is 2017 product.

As for the 4 L, that looks fake. All of the reviews are way old and from the UK.
