I went with the mobil 1 for my first one. I only drive mine in the summer so I figure one oil change a year when I bring her out of storage for the summer!

GC 0w30 with K&N 2006 filter. Been using both for years. Autozone has the oil.

Use what ever brand that you like...just change it regularly...any of these modern synthetic oils will work fine for you.
