thanks guys!!
man, the car sure does come with a lot of reading material. i think i'll have everything read by the time my 4-yr old starts college! lol
what's the break-in period and procedure on these cars? is it the usual 1200 miles, no WOT, stay below 4500 rpms? i guess i better get to reading the manual. lol

Well I went by the book for the most part, under 4200rpm for 2K miles. Broke the rules a few times, it's hard not to
My oil consumption was 2/3 of a quart the first 4000 miles and pretty much zilch after that with 1 oil change in between.
