Break in question

i know this might have been discussed countless times over and over again. i am currently at 920 miles on the clock. can i have fun after 1,000? i see people saying 1500, 2000, etc etc.

is that necessary?

Nope

Even the 1000mi is probably overkill

If you're paranoid like me, just hold off a bit on launch control. That's a bit harder on the car. Did my first launch after I changed the diff fluid at 1800

Theres is a lot of debate on the topic. We recommend following the manufactures break in procedure and then having your fun.

For me personally, 2016 C63S sedan, once i passed 1k miles i started having my fun with it. Haven't had any major issues.
