There's something seriously wrong if you are using that much oil, and  
that kind of oil consumption will cause lots of other problems.  Clog  
the cats, leave lots of carbon in the combustion chamber, dirty the  
valves, etc.

Stop driving the car until you figure out what it is, or things will  
only get more expensive.
