Could be a Mercedes-Benz CL65 AMG -- that one takes about 10 quarts of oil.

Usually diesels take 7-7.5 liters. the 4 and 6 cyllineder Mercedes take less than than, around 4.5-5 liters.

My dad's big block Chevy (427 block bored at 366) work truck with a double filter, oil cooler and an extra large oil pan takes 10 quarts. I didn't realize any cars actually did.
