Eloquent, simple, accurate.

That's up to you. Oil analysis can help you determine that.
Check this out:

On my race car I used to change my oil/filter between every race weekend... talk about throwing money away. Now I go several race weekends but change filters.
On the converse:
In that other thread it will see it mentioned that this is a Direct Injected engine and some DI engines have a tendency to have some fuel get into their oil as a result. I don't know if this DI engine is susceptible to that but hence the need for oil analysis. I think changing at 3k is way overkill though, especially with how good modern oil is now including synthetics.
