You don't want 5W-50. Stay with the Porsche recommendation of 0W-40. Also, you don't want to start the car once a month either. Set it and forget it 'til spring...

I like the infomercial "set and forget it" referrence. I found that amusing
I have a new (to me) 2001 Box S. So should I use the zero stuff despite what the manual says or does the "zero" recommendation only apply to newer cars?

Thanks, I'm really confused.
Hi,
Use the 0W-40. Porsche changed it's recommendation for all cars based upon Mobil's reformulation....

Thanks Jim.
I'll tell you, a forum like this is remarkable in that a novice can be helped from commiting costly or time comsuming mistakes! You folks are very kind.
