Default What oil to use????

Okay, I know this topic has been talked about at sometime in the past but, I need to know. I just purchased my dream car (see my sig) and I want to know your thoughts about changing over to Mobil-one. This car has always used 10W40 dyno oil every 3,000 miles. I have heard that this change would not be a good one, what do you guys think?

Also, what brand would you guys think would be the best? My thoughts are as long as you use the top brands like Valvaline and Mobil you should be fine..

I just went through a similar discussion on this forum a couple of days ago. This info should help.
