anyone burning oil?

I am at 6k of hard redline ng tunes miles and haven't lost a drop of oil per oil measuring in computer. I was lucky in my e92 m3 that I had from new that it burned no oil but that was rare for that car. I broke it in very hard and personally believe good ring seating via a hard break in is key to not losing oil on blow by. However does anyone burn oil on their f80? I broke this one hard too !

Nope. I'm very impressed with the S55 on how low maintenance it is.

The oil level on the computer display of my M4 has not come down since the break-in service.

My E92 M3 did not burn much oil either. Over my 60000miles/6 year ownership that included over 100 track days, I never had to add any oil between services and I followed the recommended schedule (no additional oil changes).

Same story for my E46.
