so I hear, AMG takes them around the block in Affalterbach for a test drive, but it is always a good idea to let a car break in at least 1500 km. If I was to break in a car, I would drive for 20 minutes at 4000 rpm, then for 20 minutes at 3000, then 20 minutes at 2000, or any variation like that. I probably wouldnt go over about 5000 when its new.
