Not that this matters much, but Nissan has a history of excessive oil consumption even with the V-8's. I bought a new 2002 Infiniti Q45 and it sucked oil like crazy. Seems it turned out to be a common complaint. They finally replaced the engine at 28,000 miles and there was considerable improvement. But as mentioned by others, that is not a real great experience either...it took several trips to get everything sorted out. Fortunately, my 370Z does not seem to have a major oil issue. I've got the fingers crossed.
