370Z Engine Failure

just as an added thought, aroudn the forum it seems everyone is finding low oil in their cars during their first oil change time. In my car the oil was slightly low too for the first change?

Any thoughts to perhaps they are originally being sold / delivered with slightly less oil? If any of the dealers here can perhaps just do a simple check would cross that out.

Not the case with our 370Z. Oil was fine, and had only gone down approximately an 1/8" on the dipstick before first oil change; oil consistently checked—same place in garage, and the same allotted time before checking oil level.
