I followed these procedures for both my M550 and F80 M3.
- Take it easy for 100 mile to bed in brake rotors and pads
- Vary RPM for the first 300-400 mile.
- For us, 400 miles was about 2 weeks mark, I start to go higher and higher.
- There is no need to hit redline but I got way up there after 600 miles on engine.

I take it easy every morning for engine oil to warm up before take it higher up in RPM range. Beside, I have to wait for my brake pads and tires to warm up anyway before gunning the engine.
