Cayenne TT Oil Consumption

I just hit 1100 miles and I have had zero descernable oil consumption. I assume this is good???
I did the 1000 mile breakin using manual tip exclusively so that I could keep the rpm's between 2000 and 3500 w/o regard to the gear I was in. It seemed that in auto mode, the shifts are at such low rpm's, I was worried about bogging/not getting a tight piston seal during breakin...

Anyways, what kind of oil consumption have other CT owners experienced ?

Thanks

I live in the city and my university is only 10 minutes away so there is not much driving to do unless I go on a road trip.

3000 miles and level has not moved.

Unlike my 911 which needed a quart at 800 miles and another at about 3600 miles.

it's odd you guys are using little to no oil given my dealer said just yesterday my 1qt every 1k miles is "normal".

I'm sure you took the dealer statement with a grain of salt...
