What cars or car parts/equipment do you use not only because of their quality but also because of advertising?

My first choice in gas is Shell because they're synonymous with Ferrari. Hey, if it's good for Ferrari, then it's good for me, right?
Also maybe because I have childhood memories (raised in France) of a Renault (or Peugeot?) rally car with the Shell logo emblazoned on the side flying through the stages

I don't really pay much attention to any one form of racing, so advertiser stickers and stuff don't play a part in my parts decisions there.

Mobil1. Not just because of the fact that the stuff works but because it also come factory-filled in a number of high-performance engines.

On a side note of Mobil1, I just did an oil change to my truck and sent a sample off to have analyzed. The results came back great and the oil had a TBN rating of 5 meaning the oil still had plenty of life left in it. The oil was changed with almost 10K miles on it and was used in a diesel engine.
