10k that would take years for some of us

like others have said give it a couple hundred miles, change the oil and then drive it like you intended to. you do see supercharged or turbo cars waiting 10k till they go under boost.

Yeah i don't want to wait for the car to become a "classic car" for me to spray . Especially sice it took me 2 months for 500 miles. I was thinking along the lines 1000 miles for break in and give it another 200 miles after that.
