ACDelco or NGK Iridium are my choice.

E3's seem to be popular with their 'diamond fire'

I'll add the forgotten zero.... 0.044 is the gap recommended.

i will never use e3. the less metal on the plug the better the spark as there will be less resistance. thats what i was told anywho.

The plugs that came on my car seem to be working fine. I suppose I will probably go back with them.

I am kind of a simpleton, I suppose. I don't see the numbers in getting super high grade plugs if the originals are working properly. Not to mention, I am not doing the whole high performance thing or any of that.

hey gene, i finally changed my plugs at 80000 miles. on mikes advice i bought the NGK BKR6EIX-11 Iridiums. $6 per plug. gapped at 44 and I couldnt be happier. noted difference in gas mileage and slight acceleration increase.

do remember, his car is practically new, he wont notice much. once he hits about 35-40K miles....
