New to Mazda and MPS

Hi All,
Came across the MPS by chance and loved the test drive. Picked up a new 2010 unit, black with tinting to mach.
So far have been wrapped! :spin:
Look forward to some great drives!

p.s. I also ride superbikes so this just adds to the stable! :LOL:

Thanks for the welcome guys. Have managed to do ~350K in the first two days and the gearbox and engine already are starting to feel more responsive.

Will look at the spur run next weekend to scrub in the tyres.

I have been keeping the gear shifts short but giving it positive bursts from time to time (not exceeding 5K at this stage).
Also operating the car at different rev ranges when crusing (habit from running in new bikes).
I also limit the turbo boosting at this stage as much as possible until I've done around 800 km's.
To bed in tyres, suspension and brakes I have taken the car on some runs through the Dandy's.
