For those of you who have been searching for a place that sells the BMW approved Castrol TWS 10W-60 Oil, I found a place, it's called Bavarian Autosport, they sell it by the Liter ($8.95/Liter).

That's cheap... I pay it around 13 dollars a liter (35 bucks in my currency).

Dealers sell it for $8.75. No shipping costs either just tax,

Bavauto is not worth it, shipping cost + tax = more than any dealer + wait time.

Do the dealers sell it as Castrol, or as "BMW Synthetic Oil" like they do for the 5W-50 brand?

It is Synthetic. (Castrol TWS 10W-60 Synthetic Oil)

Note: Not all Dealers sell it for $8.75. The markup on the oil varies from dealer to dealer. You will pay shipping but if you live outside of New Hampshire you won't be paying sales tax.

Michigan? I thought Bavarian Autosport was in New Hampshire.

Castrol TWS 10W-60 (and the same oil w/ a new name) is the only oil approved by BMW to use on S54 (E46 M3), IIRC.

Yes, BavAuto is in New Hampshire.... New Hampshire doesn't have sales tax, by the way. Doesn't matter what state you live in, they never need to charge any tax. Not bad!
