Open bottle is around 5 months old. It's from my last track day in the Hon-duh. I swapped it out before my HPDE weekend.
I don't mind purchasing another bottle just to have. I'd rather have it and not need it...

I use Motul
It just doesn't look blue lol
Yeah and some states don't allow blue brake fluid. Florida is one of them I believe.

I agree...
Motul is great stuff but overkill on a street car (and even most "race cars") in the general fashion that we see. I actually don't use Motul at all despite the fact I admit it is a quality brand.

The only reasons to have super high quality fluid is:
a) you own a track only car that gets a REAL braking system workout when it comes to a trackday... not likely
b) you want a fluid that will degrade slower vs ambient moisture that exists in your lines since it is a closed system (assuming you hoses are not degrading)
c) you want the best for your car... period (this should be the only factor in your decision making process )
LOL JP. I like #3.
Motul is good, but I haven't boiled my brake fluid on ATE Superblue so there isn't a need to go to a higher boiling point fluid. Keeps the cost down :D
