Not really, between the tolerances and materials these days that’s pretty much par for breaking in new engines. The important thing is getting that break-in oil out and not leaving it in for + 1000mi.

500 miles seems...kinda early, no?

Remember; make sure you listen to the random forum person who claims break-in is unnecessary in modern vehicles. There are so many of them, they must be right!

Wish it was more dramatic. Like.. lighting striking flashing flames asking people to rev.

Is that a Fiero with a jet encong on it?....

In other news, is that photo a JATO on top of a Fiero? 

Tesla is probably the best exercise in how goddam stupid the stock market *can* be. I know he isn’t popular around most of Kinja, but Joe Rogan had a medical expert on earlier this week who addressed high ranking staff at financial institutions earleir this month.

It’s disappointing to see such capable car as the Saturn Sky Redline be merely refered to as a “parts bin car” and “won’t be missed” by an auto blog. This is a car that is classed as Street A by the SCCA. It will run laps around a Miata and run neck to neck with a CRs2000.

Would you pay that for an unadulterated Saturn Sky? No. So why would you pay it for a Saturn Sky with a bad body kit?

Cockroaches like in Snowpiercer...

Ford has stumbled into some profitable territory here. If it’s equipped with the 2.7 EcoBoost and/or the 5.0 coyote Ford is going to have a very good run.

This one tells you that in the grim darkness of the far future, there is only war.

Yesterday, the head of the MTA advised against traveling on the city’s subways if it could be avoided.

That would be Toyota breathing a sigh of relief that they chose “Camry” instead of continuing with “Corona” for their family sedan line. 

Here’s the actual photo!
