but I have been very good about it - even through a nice little mountain run!

Hoping I'll get the rest of the miles on this upcoming weekend

Is this up at angeles crest highway?

Nice! I have the same color spec as you and I'm about 15 mins from there!

Here's our manual mentioning 5.5k rpm.

Right on! Maybe we can meet up some time for a shoot of the cars together in ACH or Malibu - I figure it's unlikely we will ever randomly run into other CS's around town for the opportunity

553 miles and hoping for more soon now that the weather forecast has improved. I actually like the sound of the exhaust, which is a nice surprise, as I had the Akrapovič Evolution on my 1M.

807 and counting...

710 miles and can't get to 1200 / 1500 fast enough. I think at 1500 I'll drive it like I stole it on the regular. I'll give the new diff oil 300 miles to set in.

Lucky to be getting winter miles in in Maryland

Car looks wicked great. Yeah, great weather in the mid-Atlantic for a winter delivery.

All this car is missing is a couple of horns because that is one devilishly good-looking beast

You have chosen well my friend

Got it out for a good drive yesterday. 250 miles on it so far, one quarter of the way there (I'll do my break in at 1,000). It is tragic to shut it down at 5,500 as it's really starts to come alive then!

Are they still changing diff oil at 1200? I thought that was something that wasn't part of the current gen.

I just passed 300 today btw.
