Default New Owner, oil consumption question
Sold Lexus 02 IS300, and picked up (for the wife) a 08 Touring 6mt, Pikes Peak White, Charcoal. Love it! Noticed that the 06(?) revup motor has oil consumption issues. Is this a problem with the 08's (9/07 build)? My 03.5 G35(60,000 mi) burns 1 qt every 3000mi. This is acceptable consumption to me.

No, you should be fine. Your 2008 350Z is equipped with HR engine -- which took care of the OC problem.

Welcome!
