So.... for those with access to a manual: does the manual address the M40i break in period? Alternatively, for those who already purchased the Z car, what specific details were you provided regarding break in periods. By the way, I am not interested in the opinion of a sales person. I am looking for something more authoritative from BMW.
Note: I just reread the guidelines at the link referred to above for buying a new BMW; which included the break in period. It's possible the quote above is only referring to the initial oil change for "M" and "i" cars, not the break in period; it's not clear. Ugh, the downside of being anal.
