I've never heard of the 80kmph rule, and don't remember seeing it here in any of the break-in threads. Does this say that in the car manual? I did the 4000rpm rule for break in and no issues so far.

I just find that hard to believe, cause most cars are built to be able to go on the highways right away, it is just the high rpms to watch out for. I literally took it on a 800km road-trip during the first 1000km because I had too and I was driving 100kmph but keeping it under 4k rpm and changing gears 4-5-6 every 30 minutes.
I dont think it says anything about 80kmph, but my Celica had me do this. Just thought it couldnt hurt. When I went to fill up I followed the dealer and we headed out the highway and I was shocked at how quick I hit 120 to keep up with him. Took a test drive same day before finalizing and I was shocked when the dealer said he could drive if I wanted, and I was like HECK NO!!! I was sold 30 seconds into the test drive.

Thanks, now Ive constantly got driving on my mind!!! Two things on guys minds all the time, SEX and DRIVING!
