Have you tried parking over spread newspapers to see if its leaking?
. Are you sure it was full initially?

FWIW, most dealers and manufacturers don't consider oil consumption to be excessive until it exceeds 1 quart per 1000 miles. Yes, I agree this is excessive, and I've never had a new car that remotely approached this level (or even an older one, for that matter).
