Speaking of crashing: When I picked up car at the dealer, I had to make a left turn onto a busy 4 lane road, gunned it and almost smacked into a raised median barrier.

But its easy for me to follow the break-in guidelines: Even under 4000 RPM, it blows away my Celica GTS(2000). That was a great car with a CAI and exhaust but there's only so much you can get out of a non-turbo 1.8 liter. It was depressing watching it fall so rapidly down the food chain with the advent of WRX's, Evos, Turbo Neon's, Camry's, Altima's, etc. Not that I got into races with those; I didn't dare.
