Default Oil for a Murcielago, Please help!

I am trying to find out what oil I need for my 2006 Murcielago. The book calls for Castrol TXT 5w40 which is not widely used in the US. Can someone please tell me what to use. I'm not even sure if it calls for a synthetic or not. I appreciate any help.

Unless this is an LP640 and they've changed from AGIP, I think recent Murci's still specify AGIP. I picked up a case recently for my G and a friend's Murci took the same oil in the manual so he bought a few liters off me.

These may help you decide, read my articles here:

I am using Red Line 5W-20 in my wife's '04 Murcie. My Enzo gets Castrol Syntec European Formula (German Made) 0W-30. I also ran the same Red Line in the Maybach 57. Oil analysis showed less wear than with the recommended OEM oils.
