None in my 04 with 27,000 miles. Every time I check/change the oil, it's still right there near the full mark on the dipstick.

None either, I noticed some people say they burn a lot. From this thread it seems that the majority do not burn oil.

My 01 w/ 95,000 miles used about 1 qt between oil changes (every 3,000 miles). I've done about 4yrs of autox, about 4 track days.

According to Motorweek's Par Goss and others, 1qt every 1,000 or so miles is normal for any engine, foreign or domestic. I've used Castrol Syntec 10W-30 since day one.

See my post above.

How much do you consider "a lot"?
