I have seen it, with my own car and others. It's the leftover soot loaded oil that colours the newoil black, but if tere's little old oil left and with little soot loading (no egr) the oil can stay light for a while.
Agreed, oil stays clean 1-2 k on my Stilo after oil change. However on my old 156 jtd turned dark much sooner.
