Then you get someone buying it and pansying around in it keeping it under 3k rpm when it's already been 3rd gear rolled to redline??? Old beliefs die hard.
Modern engines are better but the manufacturer break in schedule still shows that you should pussy foot it for the first 1000km with varying speeds. Yes it SHOULD be fine, but why risk it.

Caveat: i pussy footed my maserati for 44,000kms and the bitch still cost me buckets of cash so obviously your mileage may vary.
