GT3RS 4.0 Break In

I am sorry I know the question has probably been asked several times.

I took the RS for a ride for the first time and wow what a incredible ride.

Is is a cross between a GT and the 73RS.

This now has to be my all time favorite car to drive!

So now back to the question. With so many teamspeed members owning porsche cars i would like to get

With so many Teamspeed members owning Porsche cars I would like to get your opinion on the process on breaking-in the car properly.

My issue is I buy the cars to collect and I do not put many miles on the cars.

So knowing I will not hit 1000 or 2000 miles on the car for sometime what is the best method to break-in the car.

i was told by a man that has owned every single porsche gt3 variant you can imagine, including this one, that you can drive as hard as you fancy without worrying about damaging the engine, he used the cup cars as an example, u buy em brand new and you race em imediately


i personally would drive a couple hundred miles first just for the peace of mind

300 miles or so seat in the valves and off you go.

Drive it a few hundred miles, track it once to get it out of your system, then store it
