Thanks everyone. I love it, but i've been driving it like a grandma. I know my salesmen said there is no break in period but i'm not going to screw around in it for awhile. Anyone recommend a break-in process, don't go above a certain rpm for however many miles, etc.?

I'm also semi-new to stick so i'm getting used to it.

Was never a fan of the red accent package, but it looks great with the Alloy color, sweet ride!
Yeah, just keep your revs under 3000 rpms for the first 1000 miles or so(if you can!) and do a mixture of city and highway driving. No need to overly baby it, but just keep the revs down until the rings, etc. have a chance to seat properly. I realize the newer engines are built to tighter tolerances than in the past, but for peace of mind, keep the revs down and do a proper warm up when first starting car(I allow 2-3 mintues, old habits are hard to break). Welcome!
