It's worth the wait. I bought my 05 a month ago and the anticipation of reaching 600 makes it all the more satisfying. Enjoy. You are going to love 6000. I almost wet myself when I did it.

Shoot, that only means i have this whole month to get 600 miles...
Since work, home and church are all in a 5 miles apart.
I got my 05 suzuka blue from nalley Honda Union City.
I test drove the car and Vtec it the first day on test drive. A week later i picked up the car. Now they tell me 600 miles? I feel guilty.... lol
I guess now its properly being broken in... I still got 420 miles to go before vtec...
its so damn hard to control myself... hehe
I do occasionally hit 5200-5400 RPM range. but not vtech.
I wonder if that will do any harm?

Seriously haven't you guys ever heard of a road trip? I put 250 miles on my S2K the night I bought it, and I didn't leave the dealership until about 9pm. And I had done over 2000 before the end of the first week. Man I can't fathom being so excited to have a new car like this that you can't wait to take it home and park it.

people who dont break their engines in need to think about any sort of engine rebuild that you would do to a car. no matter if the engine is new from the factory, or rebuilt with all new parts, the engine has to be broken in for atleast 500 miles.
