Check for leaks around the pan.. do you notice any drips when you park the car? A clean hunk of cardboard placed underneath will tell you if you have any minor leaks.
I've got a '94 CSE that uses just a bit less than that... while my wife's '95 CS and my '97 Aero don't use hardly any oil at all, and my son's '95 Aero doesn't either. I should also note that my '94 has a repaired oil pan... from a collision with a chock that fell off a semi on I-95 some years back. That little repair leaks just a small amount, so most of the consumption is in the engine itself. From my limited experience, my '94's engine seems just a bit looser than the other three.
And, according to Click and Clack on NPR, a quart every thousand isn't massive, by any means...
