you only paid 37560 for your car, wow that's a great price.

 

Welcome to the G community!!! now go fix that scratch (j/k).

 

God Damnit it is a scratch how the Fk that happen.... gay ****... o well thx fellas shes a lot of fun even tho i cant take her above 3500rpms for a while break her in nice and slow

 

On the topic of not going past 3500 rpms, I talked to the mechanic at a dealership, as well as the dealer both cool and didn't B.s. me at all.
Anyways, they said there is no break in period, and from what I've read, there shouldn't be, and any break in period is purely to break you into the car so the car won't break a telephone pole and break someone's bank.
Sadly, the mechanic didn't know whether or not the piston rings where seated out of the factory or not.

 

I agree that there really is no "break in period" for motors any more. Things are so preceisly designed that any seating anis going to occur within the first three heat cycles of the motor. That is expansion and contraction of the internals are going to be set within that three times up to temp cycle, not driving 500 friggin miles at "below 3,500 RPM". Now a newly FI'ed/ fortified/ built/ stroked motor, oh heck yeah take it easy on that. After all NHRA motors are rebuilt in about 30 minutes and they tend to start them for 5 minutes and then it is show at the line. Factory motors are not as sensitive as they used to be. And besides there is a computer to keep things in check, where I bought mine, I was talking with a ASE Mech and he told me that one of the worst things to do was to let the tranny ALWAYS shift and to run CRUISE CONTROL and if you did that the computer is going to map that, performance will suffer and you will be back here in a month complaining of lack of performance. I took it off the lot in manual mode and drive it the same every day and I let my wife take it out for the "auto shift" mode just to let the computer see something different.

 

Sweet ride bro. I have an 05 Laser Red 6MT coupe and I luv it. LR definitely has to be the sexiest color for a G, IMHO.

 

congrats on the purchase! red coupes are the fastest

 

congrats, love the color, just get better pics.

 

Nice looking ride! The more times I see the dash in the 05 and 06, the more I hate the older dash

I think it's time to trade in...

 

Well if you havent realized yet, this forum will give you the correct info 99% of the time compared to a salesman

 

$37,560, if I'm correct that is about 500 over invoice. Nice Job. I'm looking at the exact same options as I don't like the aero package. Was that your negotiated price before tax?

 

Whats wrong with listening to salesmen??? I am in sales and tell the truth 100% of the time*.

* 67.243% of all statistics are made up on the fly

 

HAHAHAHA thats funny, got to love a good laugh.



Great car!

 

I guess ur the other 1%

 

although there may not truly be a break in period for ur car, i still wouldnt push it too hard right off the bat. thats just me tho, i babied my 05 till about 1150 and then gradually worked my way into higher rpms. my $0.02
