Question on break-in period - Page 2 - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

Make sure you remember the break-in is a 1000 miles not 1000 km. That's actually 1609 km for the break-in period where you have to avoid constant throttle positions, and everything else.

Popped into the dealer on my way home this afternoon to see the car:

Can't wait for Friday when I collect

Just kidding. That is very impressive

Back on topic, car arrived at the dealership. Might get it as early as this Friday. Can't wait ... 2 more sleeps ... maybe

No offense taken! I do drive very much like a granny -- I cruise at 90 km/h on the highway. Keeps more gas money in my wallet, and gives the other drivers a nice long look at my car as they go by

I won't quote your photo back at you Moe, but it's *beautiful*! Just like mine, only redder

It just hit me -- I never expected to be forum chatting with South Africans when I walked into my local Scion dealer for my first test drive. What a small world we do now live in.
