Does Anybody Know If It Will Be Alright??

Hello all, this is my first post on this forum but i have been lurking around and reading posts for a while, and I must say that this is a great forum and it proves to be very helpful.

My dilemma:

I plan to buy my new 05 coupe 6mt in Minnesota, but I live about 6 hrs away. If I drive it back and try to vary the rpms, while keeping it under 4k, should it be ok?? Should I stop periodically ? Please help, I want to break in my engine perfectly.

Also, if im getting a '05 black/black 6mt w/ premium and nav. for $35,300, is it a pretty good deal?

Any replies would be greatly appreciated, thanks

Your drive home, as you have noted, should be just fine. Congrats and enjoy your long drive. BTW . . . The price, which you posted looks good, as well.

Should be ok bro. just don't use the cruise control and vary the speed, and pit stops every couple hours.

Congrats on the new ride. Have safe trip.

since you have such long drive home, I would ask them to double check level of all the fluids and tire presures and have them show you all the basic functions of the car...first G I got, I only had to drive 60 miles to get home, but I was nerves as heck the whole way, cold sweat and all... ...congart on your purchase and welcome to the G family...I find that G have bad blind spot, its kind hard to see anything around your left shoulder thru that little rear side window......have safe drive!
