Your engine is broken in long before you ever even get into the car to test drive it. Switch to synthetic at 500 miles.

Oh and engines WILL break in on a full synthetic oil. New, better designed rings, and the proper hatching on the cylinder wall and you will have no problem seating rings in any car.

Normal dealership oil (non mobil 1) is the shittest of shitty oils that you can get. This stuff is worse then the $1 Wal-Mart brand. Hell one time, at my dealership, after doing some work to a car I had to change the oil. The damn oil that I put into the car was GREEN
