Checked my oil level last night and it looks like I'm about 2qts low after 2500 miles.... what I'm gonna do today is change the oil and monitor the oil level every week and this time I'll drive more sensibly. Now I do drive the car pretty hard. Shifting at 7500 rpm quite a bit and I have a heavy foot. I'm also doing downshifts and rev matching when I race to. Does the way you drive determine how much oil your car can use? I remember I had this oil issue in my 06 G35 with the DE motor. But I didn't think this VHR had this issue :/
