Well if they are test track miles, I hope the followed the break in procedures!

I finally got my shipment of Klasse products in the mail and I can't believe the difference. My car only had 14 miles on it, I used the Klasse All-in-One and the sealant and I couldn't believe the difference. Thanks for the recommendation and I am a believer! My factory Basalt Black paint looked dull next the Klasse-ified paint!

There is a power break in procedure described on www.mototuneusa.com , I have done this specific procedure to a 2001 MB E320, 2002 NSX, Kawasaki ZX-6 and because I bought my boxster used, I wasn't able to power break in my boxster. All it really involves is warming up your car properly, I'm anal so I did it for 15-20 minutes. then ride it in hard according to the specifics described on the website. The car's engines run like brand new to this day, Oil changes are super clean, and what can I tell you, when my uncle drives my e320, he says mine is faster than his. (we both bought our E320 4 matics at the same time). Afther the first 10 miles, you HAVE to change your oil. then anal me changed it again at 200 then 1000. I"m just being overly cautious that's all. Check out the website, you won't regret it.

omg -- just the colours on that page are controversial, let alone the content!

hey, it sounds reasonable enough, if not entirely compelling. then again, i've never seen proof that the guy who bought the car with 55 hard demo miles on it ended up any worse than the the guy who bought the car with the standard 15 factory miles. but i wouldn't know, and i can't wait to hear what those who would know will say about it . . . . (this break-in procedure might need its own thread) regardless, thanks for the info pino --- never seen anything like it.
