If it has a 3.8 liter engine, the head gaskets are blown. This is a very common problem and is expensive to fix. Refill it (water is fine for the test) and look for white steam in the exhaust. If it has been run empty for any length of time, the heads will probably need replacement as well.
A small leak can be hard to find since most of the coolant will evaporate. Fill up the cooling system, and wash the engine well. Check all the hoses and connections, and the water pump. Also check the radiator and heater core (if it leaks, the windshield will get smeary and nasty when the defroster is on).
Good luck.
