It is not rated for these cars so if you do damage it, SOA is not going to cover it. I know that Dennis will argue but Motul tech dept has advised us to not use the 300v in extended interval changes for street cars that heat cycle often. It is meant as a racing oil.
Personally in a street car the 0-20 Motul x series will be more than enough IMO.

mister.bond does not care about SoA.
It is not API certified but 300V
can safely handle a 5-6k mile interval. It is fine to use as a street oil and we have uoa's on this forum to back that up.
Sorry, but you cannot
prove to me that it cannot handle a typical street/tracked interval of 5-6k miles, regardless of who you're speaking with. Is it overkill for
most applications? Absolutely. Will Motul Eco-lite 0W-20 be fine for most intervals here and up to Subaru's/Toyota's 7,500 mile maximum interval (longer than 300V)? Absolutely.
BTW, there are no "x-series" oils in the Motul line-up that are 0W-20. The only 8100 oil by Motul that is a 0W-20 in N. America is Eco-lite. Is there a new oil that's not on Motul's web site? Or maybe you're thinking of X-clean 5W-30 and 5W-40?
