I get some german guy from the porsch dealership to change my oil. He runs the same oil in the 911 GT2. Costs me $1500, but I gain about 30whp from it.
He also uses a porsche designed filter wrench, that makes my filter the exact tightness on the block, that it allows 100% oil filter ability, while maintaining 99.9% flow rate.
Best $1500 I have spent.

last time i checked! the dealership charged my uncle $340 for his oil change for his 996 twin turbo!
a GT2 would be the same price!
the most expensive oil i know of is the Mugen/Panoz specific oil that Motul manufactures for their Le Mans and GT race! those oil are $55/L

I do all the family cars. it's just so much easier than booking an app't at the dealer, then waiting there like a boob. I'd rather do it, and inspect some **** while I'm down there.

hahahahahahaha... I fly in my own german guy to supervise me while I change my oil. he brings the oil, apparently he sucks it from the ground in the glacial alps, then he refines it through the feathers of a do-do bird, and finally he ages it in barrels made of an extinct redwood.
