I've just spent time deleting the three or four major inflammatory thread replies in this post from ferrariman and the other. Do NOT make me continue to do so. This is a harmless thread, and it'll stay that way or it'll end up locked and/or in the Dumpster.

ferrariman... he can have a Palestinian flag if he wants. If a person puts a German flag in their avatar, it doesn't mean they're a Nazi. Get it?

I VTEC'd mine right around 595 miles to impress a friends friend of hers. They thought differently about Hondas from thereafter hahahaha... This car is quite fast I have to say. Can't wait to start lightening up pieces here and there.

I was a good boy and waited until over 600 miles. My Salesman said I had to come back and take him for a ride. That was back on January 31. I went this weekend with 1877 miles and we went for a zoom up and down the highway. He had fun I believe.

I hit the VTEC at about 650 miles and then got right out of it. I hit it again at 700 miles and took it up to 7,000 rpms. Then at 750 it went up to 8,000 and at 800 miles it went up to 9,000.

no, i didn't VTEC until 750 miles ...

i don't think Honda or the dealer will bother you if you VTEC during break-in ...

break-in period is only recommanded ...
