I use Mobil 1 5W30 Full Synthetic. Any 5W30 is fine.

yup def 5W30 as in the manual but as per brand just pick any. I buy any oil which is on sale/discounted. But going synthetic is upto you. i say stay away from synthetic especially when going 1st time with a high mileage car. And follow the service interval and you will be fine
