how did you break this in?
hey guys.
New to the board. Just gave up my baby for this beast and I'm having a hard time sitting in it under 4000 RPMs. HOW DID YOU BREAK THIS ANIMAL IN? I itch just granny-shifting!
Any advice would help.
Oh, and is anyone else paying an arm and a leg for insurance?
Does this guy know he's a banana?:banana:

It was DIFFICULT. I just drove the hell out of the car for the first week. Went from Sac to Tahoe and back on the first Saturday, then to Fort Bragg and down hwy 1 on Sunday.
I didn't keep it under 4k the whole time - I specifically remember some asshat in an s10 getting a full view of my tail lights on hwy 1. Once I came home from Fort Bragg I was around 1100 miles and was set

as far as insurance for "the beast" goes, you should shop around. i have a clean driving record and the best i got was $2100 a year (full comp. and collision).

It was the automatic that drove like a stick cuz it liked to stall at stop signs and traffic lights and seemed to have turbo lag, becasue the second I stepped on the gas it would bog down...
