FYI I am in Chicago as well (Streeterville next to the lake), who are you using for your Indy ? I'm using M & R Car Import Services (on Sheffield) in Lincoln Park.

You go to the dealer to top off your oil?
How much mileage on your car? Because while there are other things that can cause oil smoke after extended idling, I think the valve guides are inevitable at some point between 100k-125k miles. Regardless of staying on top of top end oil leaks and CCV system.
