I have to be honest, I did not know about the break-in procedure, and got on the car a bit as well. Had I known about the break-in procedure, I would not have done so. Nonetheless, I think the car probably had 15 miles on it by the time I left. And the salesmen were revving the car up a good bit as well. Glad I did not buy that one.
There are many people that would tell you that the break-in procedure is not important and to drive the car like you normally would. That said, you should not be redlining the car and abusing a cold engine before it is warmed up. I just don't know if you could every proove someone did and well, worse case you have a 5 yr 60K mile warranty on the drivetrain.
