Well I went by the book for the most part, under 4200rpm for 2K miles. Broke the rules a few times, it's hard not to My oil consumption was 2/3 of a quart the first 4000 miles and pretty much zilch after that with 1 oil change in between.
cool, thanks for the info!

Jason, Congradulations! Love your Sand Beige full leather combo. I have the same combo too, we can get together take some family photos.
I live in San Ramon, not too far away from you. I also love my Canon camera. Same manufactory of the car & same manufactory of the camera. Are you sure we aren't related.

Sweet Ride Jason....I too just picked up my first Pcar last month...although here in SoCal, I don't need a top! Funny though...I've been following the factory break-in rules...1400 miles and I have yet to break 4500 RPM's. After reading some of the posts....I'll be breaking that a little tomorrow!!

Thank you sir! Yeah, after reading those break-in procedures, seems I'm closer to being done than I thought!

Man, I spent some time playing around with some of the electrical gadgets last night. The individual tire pressure readout is so damn cool, as is the digital display of the oil level. Tonight I'm going to plug my SIM card in and try out the Telephone Module. I friggin' LOVE these cars!
