Tex, Enrique told me that 1 qt of oil per 2k miles is OK.

What weight oil are you using?

I use 20-50, which is what the manual says to use.

My 300CE uses a little less than 1 qt per 2k miles.

The 300TE with the M103 engine and over 210k on the clock uses less than 1 qt of oil between oil changes (3k to 3.5k miles).
