New S-Oil popped up on Amazon, any good?

I did notice after I started posting this that it's only 4.2 quarts instead of 5 so maybe not that great of a deal...

Company is based in Seoul So Korea.

It might be okay but with so many better known brands out there, why take a chance?

Wasn't really about taking a chance, wondered if someone would pop in and say "it's really good true full syn" or something like that.

EDIT: I use the $22 bottle of Idemitsu in my mazda over Mob1 now.

Their synthetics are group III unless stated PAO as on the bottle?

For a minute there I thought maybe this was oil for an S class Mercedes.

The supplier that I get the cheap Car lube oil also has S-oil. They claim it's an upgrad from the car lube.

There is no chance to be taken. S-Oil provides Phillips 66 Lubericants with synthetic base stocks and has for more than 15 years.
