Finally through the break-in period

Just got over 2000 miles on the S yesterday. It's been really hard keeping this thing at 4000 rpm. I've since been shifting at redline occasionally and all I can say is Holy Crap! It's a whole different car once you get beyond 4 grand. I know I'm not the first to post this but I couldn't help myself. The engine has an unbelievable note in the upper range. Texas911 is right, God I love this car. My wife still thinks she can whip me in her supercharged Jag, I think she's wrong and can't wait to take her for a post-breakin ride.

I don't know man, I know your wife and I wouldn't argue with her
