I guess both major camps have some solid arguments.

- Start slow, ramp up over the first 1k miles or so.
This allows various car parts to "settle" properly.

- Break it in the way you expect to drive it later.
This way, parts get "used" to the way you're driving.

I believe the truth is somewhere in the middle. I did take it easy in the beginning, but I also visited some mountain roads for some spirited driving. I did not go all out, but I gave the car a taste of what to expect in the future.
