Well, first of all I hope you have changed the oil before now. If you still have the factory oil in there that should have been changed at 3750.
Anyway, I use Redline Synthetic with a Mobil1 filter and I change it every 7500 miles.
If you use "regular" oil and get the filter from the dealer (which is fine) you should change it every 3k-4k or so......

It depends on the specific oil you use, and your driving conditions. However, even if you are able to run extended drain intervals, you'll need to change your oil filter regularly.

I do 95% highway driving... so I'm fine with 7500 miles.. but others may not. LIke eCo said... it really depends on your driving conditions....
