I'm a big fan of Motul 600. It made a huge difference in my Z (overweight, underbraked) on the track. I found that I can get it locally (and cheap, <$9 per pint) at a motorcycle shop. You might want to check out bike shops in your area.
Make sure you flush it at least once a year though.

For a street car, I would just stick with Valvoline. Costs $2-3 per bottle at any auto parts store and lasts forever. It's not really good enough on the track, but it's great on the street.

outlast => like others say, it must be changed regularly (at least twice a year). Other fluids can last up to 2 years before a change is needed. I agree with others that the Motul 600 is awesome (I use it on my track car).
For reference (as it has not been stated yet) Motul RBF 600 has 593°F dry/420°F wet boiling point.
Another good fluid is ATE® Super Blue (DOT 4); has a dry boiling point of 536F and a wet boiling point of 396F. I use that on my street cars. It is also 1/2 the price of Motul.
