Adam, I'm not positive on this, but I think there's a thread on this here that has some highly technical information about what happens during the break-in period and why Porsche recommends the mileage it does. You may want to do a thread search.

I know one thing... If I bought a new Porsche, I'd be planning to keep it for at least 10 years to make it worth the huge depreciation one takes on any high dollar car purchase. So, I'd want to follow the letter of the law so to speak, just to elongate the life of the engine.
