Over the long run, likely no issues would result, needless to say the preference is to wait for 1200. If you still have a choice, I would pull it back and wait until 1200. Which dealer is this? I am very disappointed to hear a SA offered it, he should know better. I've had very good experiences with Rudy or Brent @ BMW of Alexandria. (heard lots of bad stories with Fairfax, however)

In the E9X M3 world, we've had a variety of break-in experiences, and to date, not 1 issue I can recall attributed to "improper break-in".

Our experiences range from:
1. past 1200
2. before 1200
3. drive it like I stole it
4. baby it
5. structured schedule (combo of hwy and various speed roads)

They all didn't matter. But at the end of the day, if you have a choice, why mess with a schedule as recommended by BMW engineers, right?
