My '05 RevUp (Track model) consumes virtually no oil.

Not all 06's consume oil, I have an 06 (made on 9/05) and I have not had any problems with oil consumption.

I would think any sports type car would consume some amount of oil especially if driven hard.

My 06' build date 11/06 has consumed 1/2 quarts in the 2400 miles. Not enough for me to worry about it.

My 06' RSX Type-S I had consumed 1 1/2 quarts every 3000 miles.
My 85' RX7 consumed 2 quarts every 3000 miles with 120,000 miles.
