NJ Just brought a new 2009 Starlight Silver Sport

I'm a proud new owner of a 2009 Sunight Silver RX-8 Sport model. With the $5000 rebate and the dealer going well below invoice, I couldn't pass the deal up.

It's my first rotary and I'm excited. I can't wait for the 2000 mile engine break-in to be over!

Welcome, great choice! I made it to 800 miles and couldn't stand it anymore (that is the tame driving). May you have a better break in.

He's probably following the Racing Beat break-in procedures. Thats the one I'm following for the break-in procedure for my '09 GT.

Break in should be you driving hard and training the engine to do what you wNt it to. It's not 1937 anymore.....
