Note in the Glovebox

Anyone else have this? My car "07S Auto" had a note saying that 5 miles of the cars odometer were from testing on a high speed ring before the car was shipped out to be sold. Seems kind of cool, wondering if it is a quality control thing, and that everyone has it, or that its because my car was a first run vehicle "bought it off the showroom floor before the november release date"

Yup, I had that note as well and it was signed by the tester with 4 miles. My car was delivered with 7.2 miles.

I dont think I have one... I haven't look that hard though either, might have to check it out. If not, I'll put 4-5 miles on my own high speed ring!

So your note is saying you have carte blanche to drive like a demon before break-in, eh? Just kidding...I've obeyed break-in and am eagerly awating the 1200 mile mark (only at 760 after 4 months).

Do you drive it everyday? that doesn't sound good, if you do that many short trips the engine never gets to break-in properly. you need to open it up and let it run, driving it hard would probably be better for you if your tirps are that short.
