You still selling her?
Yes, I don't want to break forum rules, so unofficially yes. I was going to take photos tomorrow and do a formal post in the classifieds. If you are interested, PM me.

Now, as for the OP,
Cory, you are still invited to see this and go over the whole car step by step.

What ever happened with your oil issue? Did you sort it out?

I love the color. Exactly the color I was looking for. I get a ton of compliments and photos taken at car meets. She's def an attention whore :)

Saturday drove granny style to WPB and home. RT was 370 miles. Sunday morning checked the oil and the level was at the same level from when I topped off. Now just doing city driving. I smell burning oil. Tips are black with soot. I'm burning oil for sure. I'm leaning more towards 1 quart every 1,000 miles or so. I will keep track of it and get a pattern. Will probably take in to the dealership just before the next oil change. I've also read that the motor stops burning as much oil as you get more miles on the engine. So...I'll just enjoy the car and maintain the oil level as necessary. But if it ends up being drinking oil < 1,000 miles I'll take it in to the dealership.

Tips are black with soot. No oil consumed. Another myth busted.

If you are smelling oil burning, it probably is your oil pressure sensor. If it only drips, that would explain no oil consumption and it would explain the smell. If you are burning oil, the cats are doing thier job and you wont smell or see it. Did you check the oil pressure sensor for leaks? When my oil pressure sensor leaked, i smelled it because it dripped on the headers.


1 qt per thousand? You didn't burn any oil in almost 400 miles. 1 qt per thousand is considered normal consumption.
