All 3 of the Mazda 3's (2007, 2014 and 2015) have never consumed a drop of oil. I average 80 mph + in my car and it hasn't moved from the full mark in over 4k miles.
The Honda/Toyotas I had always consumed oil. It doesn't mean much, or impact engine longevity but it's nice not having to add any
One difference that may or may not have impacted oil consumption is engine break-in. Toyota/Honda were driven gently the first 1k miles. The Mazdas were broken in aggressively.
