Same here...the manual says 2 qts every 600 miles is OK, but my 97 does not burn any oil at all!

My 98 F355B F1 is about the same as Mitch. Very low oil consumption considering it's been driven across the US once and tracked several times.
LOVE THIS CAR!

My F355B does not eat any oil at all (less than 1 Qt in 3000 mile change interval) and I take it to the track and run the snot out of it regularly.

Kevin, Ferrari says two quarts every 600 miles is acceptable but that is only to cover there butts after they had to replace so many engines in early injected 308's. I feel a quart every 800 to 1000 miles would'nt be uncommon at all.
