Some people may say different, but imho, No. The VQ feels smoother and runs cooler with other oils. The cheapest good oil inho is castrol edge. Other than that one. I would go with the more expensive oils for a cooler smoother running engine. I'm sure you can get away with mobil 1 if you don't care about keeping your engine running strong over 150,000 miles? But that's up to you.

Many others must be a bunch of people like you who are looking to spend the least amount of money possible on an oil change with little regard to optimum vs average to subpar performance depending on your driving style and/or weather conditions of the day.
Why not spend an extra $9 and give a better oil a try.
