Congrats.
Mine came in last Thursday and after some intense negotiation (walking out, then coming back the next day) I picked it up.

Go to photobucket.com, create a profile, upload the pics there, take the [IMG] full link and post the link in a msg box here. Then the pic will appear

Now see, I was always told that you should give an engine and car atleast 1500 miles to really wear and get proper grooves. You don't want to start forming your natural braking grooves on those nice Brembos only to mess them up with some hard braking before time. Plus piston groovage lol. Maybe I am wrong, but I always heard like 1500 miles before you get on it.

I know that for my parent's 2004 BMW Z4, it said right in the manual the amount of miles you should take er easy for. Check the owners manual?

200 seems way to short of a break in period. I know that my new SS wont be seeing anything above 4k RPMS till atleast 750+ miles. whichs is only about a week (5days) of work for me. First car, not taking chances. After that tho.... Hello No-Lift, good bye SRT-4s.

Yeah, the manual says 500 miles before any hard acceleration, then gradually increase after that. 1000 - 1500 miles sounds about right to me before really nailing it... well, that's the theory of course... not sure if I can wait that long!
