no there is no harm at all in taking the car past 3k....you should be taking in well past that actually....vary the engine rpms.....im not saying take it to the track but dont baby the thing either
Thats right, you can't even drive a GT without going above 3000 rpm

I just traded my V6 pony package car in on a GT premium 5 speed last friday. I took it out that evening with 9 miles on the odometer and came home that night with right at 200 miles on it after I had the car up to 140MPH. I forgot about the breaking in time
