I have over 57,000 miles on my 01 and have driven it in every mode possible and generally hard since day 1 (WOT shifting above 6500). I always make sure it's warmed up (around 10 miles) before going above 3500 rpms.

The oil has never left the full mark between yearly oil changes (10,000 to 15,000 miles).

Baby it, it will make you suffer.

I added about 1/2 quart last year at about the 6,500 mile mark.
