Uhhh... I take it you're taking the "run it hard" approach to breaking in the engine

I hope you leased it and not bought it

I'm sure that's what the BMW engineers MEANT to put in the manual, they just left it out and put in the <100 mph <4000 rpm rule by mistake.

I dont know about you, but I dont go over 100 or 4k on a daily basis. And I broke it in the way I drive normally. If someone is going to redline the car and/or hit triple digits often, I doubt it really matters how they break it in. Its going to be worn no matter what. Dont ya think?
