[QUOTE="03Cobra05GT, post: 12220498, member: 39121"] Actually, there are quite a number of guys on here that said they followed it, myself included. See, I don't know, some guys on here, say "I didn't buy a $60k+ car to baby it, blah blah blah" but I look at that completely different. The more expensive a car, I would think the more you would take care of it. Do I plan on babying mine the WHOLE time? HELL NO. In fact, after hitting 1,000 on mine, the next 1,200 miles I now have on mine, have been pretty rough driving. But I appreciate the fact that anything new, with friction parts needs to be broken in. I'd rather play it safe and show a little restraint for 1,000 miles than have issues simply because I couldn't wait to go ripping in the thing. I hope everyone who is having issues with the clutch gets it resolved. It sucks to be in that situation, but I just can't help but to stress enough that $60k car or $200k car, if a break in is recommended, than it's for a reason. Why would you completely ignore it? Does being an expensive car magically mean the mechanics of how friction parts work no longer applies to said car? [/QUOTE]
