Frothy

Hey I've had my 2004 RX8 for a week now and filled up twice so I thought I would check the oil.....I already bought 2 just in case. When I checked it the oil was frothy, but the "darker" oil looked full. The frothy was the whole way up the dipstick...and I did this several times to make sure it wasn't a fluke. Any clue on what this is, or does all RX8 oil look this way? Thanks

To save you another post in the summer another normal thing is for the cooling fans run for up to ten minutes after you turn off the car on a hot day
