    How much oil on average are the f355 using??? The dealer I use says in warmer weather one quart per 500 miles.

    I just sold mine and I put about 2500 miles a year. Changed oil once a year and NEVER had to add oil.

    I was expecting to have to add oil also, but hasn't been required. I should also add that I'm not putting many miles on it. Approx. 1500 miles I guess.

    I think some oil drinking occurs most from heat and hard driving with these. My 348 when cruising light driving cooler weather zero oil. Summer hard driving starts sipping oil....
