Your engine was fully tested and run, at the test cell in Affalterbach. It's the tranny that needs exercising. So don't sweat it

I wouldn't think twice about any of this. How many miles did you say were on the car when you got it? none of those were "break in" miles. a break in is a thing of the past. go out to the car right now turn traction control completely off and stomp on the gas. Have fun it's just a car and one that carries a full warranty.
So many people touched YOUR C63 before you ever got to drive it, the drive to the container ship and on and off the ship ; the drive to thecar train or the tractor trailer, the car hauler driver who drove up and down the ramp, the delivery tech who checks cars in, the salesman, the dealership owner who "just wanted to try it", the PDI guy..............probably 10 people drove the car before you and they don't really car about it, its just a piece of "metal to them".

+1 ^^^ and to add to this, the service tech who PDI'd the car (pre Delivery Inspection and Service) probably took it around the block and did WORSE than your dad did!! Trust me, I used to PDI cars at a VW/Audi/Porsche dealership and we'd ROMP on that gas with 2-3 miles on the car right after it came off the car hauler..............911s, 996/997, Beetles, S4s, it didn't matter, they all got the "treatment" to see if they were worthy of the marque!!

What 100 miles, what are they doing road testing them or what? That's like 7 laps around the Nurburgring.

They're called "dealer demos" and since they're not titled, they are sold as NEW!!! 100 is not typical, I'd say more like 10-20 is more typical off the truck, BUT it does happen!!!
Some TT Porsche guys wouldnt take em if they had more than 10 miles on them so you had to be careful. Don't forget too, we had to take them for gas, car wash and they don't always get premium in the tank!!!

something that can use more power
Question. Does your dad know how to drive a car? I dont understand why he would brake torque your car by accident if he has driven a car before. He didnt notice the smoke and noise? Thats funny stuff

I knew there was something wrong when I read the title of this thread. Keyword: accidentally.
He knew what he was doing, and I bet he enjoyed every second of it. Your nerves were just so tensed,
and perhaps that's why you missed the huge smile on his face.
Here are smaller images of your sig.

I stomped on it with 30 miles and continue doing so. A car is just a tangible and material thing. It comes with a warranty for a reason. From my past experiences and others...the more you worry or care about a car the more 'events' you'll tend to have with it/in it.
I know many guys on forums from cars past (myself included). The more we/they seemed to baby their cars the worse they'd run into bad luck. Rock chips from a tractor trailer, being keyed, egged, hit n run, accidents, rear end collisions, door dings....hail storms
The list goes on and on. In my opinion, enjoy the car money comes/goes as do cars.
Take care of your car but don't let/allow the car to control you or your life. I remember how pissed I'd get for weeks/months when I'd rash one of my rims in my other cars...LOL.

I hope this thread is a f#cking joke. You drive a c63, and you have never did a burnout before. You must be some kind of P@ssy who traded in his tan lexus suv for this car because it red. Grow some ba!!s.

Last time I checked, this thread was for enthusiasts of MB's and other vehicles. If you're angry that you can't satisfy your wife, go hire a call girl to vent your frustration. Umadbro? I only posted this thread to troll for the likes of you.

Loser...
Obviously you must have a slit between your legs..... no ****ing man who owns a c63 has never done a burn out. And trust me a$shole Im not mad bc you own a hopped up c class who everyone and there mom owns these days, im mad because your taking up space. I can help you locate you a new lexus or prius in tan again if you want. You are not an enthusiasts and do not deserve to drive this car...... Holy f#cking ***** a 5 second burn out....no way.....its called living. Sell your car, buy a lexus suv in tan, and move to California. I still dont understand how the f@ck you could be from texas.
