Put down 500 miles of break in on the back roads of PA. She's a dirty girl! Eating a lot of bugs! But dang, what a ride! Everything I was hoping for over my F87!

Should kill most of the rest of the miles tomorrow and Sunday.

Finished the rest of my loop today! I love PA, these were all back roads (see map below)! I'm beat lol.

My lord, this car is an amazing machine. She spent most of the time at the limits of the break in guidance, a couple times over.

She got a well and thorough break in. Another 300 mile loop tomorrow and she's done, sitting at about 850 now. Break in service next Friday morning!

For tonight, she gets to sleep in the garage.

I’ll be driving by you after Memorial Day enroute from CT to Chicago and then to AZ. Hopefully the scheduling holds up. I’ll be looking to get off the interstate from time to time to vary the loads and speeds.

Looks like you’re having a lot of fun with yours.

That seems to be the overwhelming opinion of new owners. I trust them, and can't wait to get mine!

Put on a “Pre Preg Carbon Fibre ID-01” spoiler by Tre yesterday. Hadn’t done a spoiler removal/install before so took some pics.

Looks fantastic!! I’m stuck between this one and the slightly smaller one from TRE. Care to share a few more pictures of it on your car? Thanks

Justin, I feel your pain! When I did a similar trip in my E92M3, I stopped at a crosswalk and some lady started screaming and pointing at my car. I looked over my shoulder thinking a semi was about to hit us both! It was only later that I saw this...

As a bird lover who owns a 15 year old pet cockatiel, this is mildly unsettling.

I'll say that plastic heat exchanger guard did its job and prevented any damage to the HX from the bird.
