I had to replace about 1 1/2 qt at 1000 miles. It is normal for these things to burn oil. Especially during break in.

2 quarts in 6000 miles...it's not unusual...make sure you use the correct oil.

I have a 04 GT2 with about 2000 mi. in the last 6 weeks since I got it . Based upon the gauge I have used no oil . The dealer may of over filled the tank, I will probably change the oil myself at 2500 mi. Then I'll have a better idea of actual usage

1 quart at 500 miles hopefully it was not filled all the way, that is way fast and I am following break-in??? I now have 900 miles and haven't had to add again....we'll see what happens.
