I didnt even sleep at a Holiday Inn last night, I'm not the expert! But, I agree with your assessment, pick your favorite brand and change it often.

Surprised it hasn't been mentioned yet, but Porsche has a spec for oil - A40.
You can find various lists online (from different dates.)

Took a long time Brad Penn oil only motor apart and it had the most carbon of any good compression motor I have seen the insides off. It had gotten so thick as to flake off. This was fouling the plugs. YMMV.

There is no substitute for using German oil technology in our German sports cars... and compatibility will be maximized if that car has Fuchs wheels.
