Most peoples issues are due to babying the car during break in then going out at 1200 miles and suddenly flooring it to redline every gear even when the motor is cold.
Your right, did the same as you on mine and A/ it's very fast and B/ burns NO Oil.
Also NO Soot in the exhaust pipes at all, you can put your finger in and wipe it and Nothing no black stuff.
