Was sad to see SCC go, now sad to see this go the same. Both mags had a great staff behind them.

Looking forward to the reviews. I want to like this car, but its getting more difficult to embrace it when the rest of the market has detracted from its luster over the years.

Thats neat! Thanks.

I do not.

Small detail, but I must add that this is not technically a Mazda logo, but a Eunos logo. .. Since its in this thread more than twice.

Top five favorite marquee of mine. Love its classical style.

I actually like this. I assume its on a steering wheel?

This always reminded me of a brake disk and caliper.

Love this.

Whoa..Dude. That almost looks intentional

Nope. Disbanded and absorbed by Modified mag.

SCC FTW

Engine power will fall off over time if you don't change it. Not sure how long this takes, keep an eye on the oil health indicator in the shop.

More to do than what? We're talking about a video game here. It's not that technical. I agree with your assesment of actual physical engine break-in.

I don't have a precise read on the algorithm used for engine break-in. The numbers are arbitrary to reality, but consistant within the game. It seems like all cars get a roughly 5% increase in power from what is 'advertised' in the dealer menu.

The engine oil trick is meant as a way to skip the engine break-in process. If you don't change the oil on a 0.0 (or near) mile car before you begin driving, the power will rise over a 150 mile duration to its peak power.
