I would have been mega pissed if I purchased the car or intended on keeping it (it's a lease which I will be returning). I kick the crap out of it myself anyway, so it's not really too bad. I did find the explanation of the break in procedure from the dealer a bit of a joke though, given they have people test driving cars with under 100kms on them. I hammered the shit out of the car when I test drove it, it kind of sucks to realize that some poor guy/girl picked that up as new.
