When I worked at an auto dealership, we would tell new owners that on modern cars, for the first 500-1000 miles just drive it like you normally would, but at 8/10 intensity. So don't go doing burnouts as soon as you get it maybe, but you can still drive it enthusiastically. As we put it "If you're going to regularly go up to Vegas at 90 mph, break it in by going to Vegas at 80 mph."
