Just make sure you follow the break in period. Don't want anything to happen to that beast!

Until 300 miles (500 km):
. Do not depress the accelerator pedal more than halfway and avoid rapid acceleration.
. Drive with the engine speed kept at less than 3,500 RPM.
. Avoid unnecessary quick steering, abrupt braking and driving on poor roads.

300 to 1,200 miles (500 to 2,000 km)
. Avoid rapid acceleration in a low gear (1st to 3rd gears) with the accelerator pedal fully depressed. Depress the pedal slowly.
. Avoid unnecessary quick steering and abrupt braking.
. Drive with the suspension setup switch in the COMF mode to allow more suspension stroke.

Why is this necessary or recommended?
