My local dealer uses Mobile 1 which I will change over to at the first oil change. Is this a good oil to use or is something else better? Thanks
You really don't need to. Many say this mainly for prevention but your car will absolutely be fine without a break in oil change. You had to ask what oil.

Welcome to the forum and enjoy your Z.
