For break-in of the car it is not recommended that you do long stretches on the highway, because you do not cycle the engine enough. I have seen the owner’s manuals for MB, Audi, and Porsche and they all recommend that you cycle the engine through, and stipulate that you should not pass 2/3 of the rev limit mark, usually before you reach 1000 miles.
I just broke 1000 miles on my car and will slowly; ever so slowly start to open her up. One of my co-workers did the same thing with his 04’ 530i, and the car runs perfectly well and has not had any problems.
