1200 miles and 120MPH
Well I just could wait any longer. Break-in period is over !
Heading out to play golf early Sunday morning and I had 30 minutes to get to destination that normally takes 50 minutes. Route 24 South and a perfectly straight, open and clear shot and took it up to 120 for a relatively long stretch (we're in the States now - I know you Autobahn'ers are saying "yeah ? So what ?"). Car was effortless - quiet, stable and clearly just settling into it's stride. Made it to the 1st tee with minutes to spare.

Only 120? C'mon, if you're going to go license losing fast, might as well take it to the limiter

Congrats! Enjoy it! Glad you're officially done with break-in. Although to be honest it didn't really sound like you cared about it too much the other day!
