Is your car hesitating, bucking anything like that? that would be a sign of the intake sucking it up. If the oil looks fine form the dipstick, I would double check and replace the oil. if none of the above, you could have a possible heatercore going, which is super easy to replace in our cars. It's the heater core lines that will be a P.I.T.A. since they sit all the way in the firewall and theres crap all around them to get to. Also, you have to physically take the plastic cover from infront of the heatercore since they seal pretty well. I didn't know why I smelled coolant in my car, but never seen a leak until my wife (then my new girlfreind) stepped on the floor mat and I saw a splash, the coolant apparently flowed under the carpet and puddled next to where the cat makes that rise in the sheetmetal.
Did you flush your radiator yet? The first day i got my car, it overheated, wasent due to low coolant or bad gaskets, the dealership my aunt took it to said they flushed to system, when in fact it had NEVER been flushed, and there was so much sludge from the dexcool, it couldn't cool properly. After I flushed I never had a problem with overheating again.
