I changed my oil about 2 weeks ago, checked it today...empty. ? Is there a common area that these cars leak oil from? I have only had the car about a month. I park in a dirt drive, but Ii haven't noticed anything.

GT or ST? GT's are known to have leaky valve cover gaskets that drip all over the back of the engine, and ST's have been known to burn oil. You probably wouldn't notice any leaking oil in your driveway unless you left the car running for a little while. I assume you haven't noticed the car smoking at all?
