$23 a gallon T6. Is what I used until they dropped the S rating.  Likely still fine.  I use Delo SDE now, about same price and still has a S rating.

I’m pretty positive that end is glass fiber reinforced plastic. 

That new Capri Green is such a sick color!  Congrats!  You'll love the hull!

Here's a first look at my 2024 Malibu 23 LSV in capri green! After thinking thru a million different color schemes, we eventually went with a something very similar to the 23 LSV promo video. We weren't quite sure how it would turn out (could not see the new capri green metallic in person), but we absolutely love it!! These photos really don't do the sparkle justice. Taking her out for the maiden voyage tomorrow and will report back on the wave. We upgraded from a 2019 22 LSV w/ Monsoon 409.....so the new 2024 hull + LT4 supercharger should be fun! 

Initial impressions on the fit and finish are great having climbed all over the boat installing my rev12s, ACR, and battery charger. There are some small scuffs on the bottom of the hull where it looks like they powerloaded it at the factory (grrr!!!). They aren't too bad and I'll have the dealer take a look at the break-in service. If I could complain about anything, it's that I'm not a big fan of the new cover ratchet system / hooks on the back. It just seems like it's going to rip sooner rather than later. 

I would get the one that has an S rating (e.g. SN) for spark (gasoline) engines to go along with the C rating for compression (diesel) engines.
