M2 engine oil

Hi All
I've decided I'll change the engine oil at 10,000 KLMS a instead of the 20,000 as stated by BMW. So I get the right amount of oil, exactly how much oil does the engine hold.
Thanks

I believe it is 6.9 quarts or 6.5 liters. The post above has it backwards. You will be fine just dumping 7 quarts into it.
