The bottom line is the vehicle is being driven (and maintained) within spec. This rate of oil consumption was not expected, even by BMW, until a few months after release of the car when customer complaints started coming in (according to 2 of my local dealerships). Eh; it's manageable for now, but the sheer volume of oil that keeps "disappearing" on a regular basis is definitely something to keep tabs on...
