Yeah, I had a feeling it would be tough getting a hold of the SM, but I saw someone over at BITOG score some in late January, so I figured I'd give it a go.

No big deal. I'll end up either going with the Mazda w/ Moly of if I'm feeling particularly snobby, Sustina.

I wonder why the Idemitsu Mazda blend is loaded with Moly, though? That's SN/GF-5, so obviously the high presense of Molt doesn't necessarily reflect its compliance to the new guidelines. Did Subaru request the change themselves? What reason would they want their SN stuff to have zero Moly when it was loaded before?
