the second, i pretended i did it already. i left the dealer sideways through first, and chirped second just in case.

outside of first gear, i try to not let the revs go below 2000. i generally hover around 3000 the majority of the time though. and it see's redline at least once every time it leaves the garage. it's a mechanical device. and mechanical devices are built to serve a purpose. my cars purpose is to be fun!

ENJOY YOUR NEW CAR!!
I am pretty sure the manual says you should redline daily to preserve the integrity of the motor. I know I do[emoji12]
