Break in period for a new z

JARblue

If the dealer won't cover it as part of the service contract, then I would at least try to get them to by bringing up the point about wear during the break-in period. If not, tell them you'll bring your own oil and filter (5 qts of Mobil 1 is ~$25 at Walmart). Most dealers charge $10-15 for the labor on an oil change.

For my wife's Honda, I've started just paying the dealer for the cost of the filter and labor (usually runs me $18 + the $25 for Mobil 1 oil). Although for the Z I like to use a Purolator PureOne filter, which usually requires an additional trip to the auto parts store. I stock up on oil and filters whenever I find a good price.
