Isn't that a point of having a demo!???  Sure, they want people to be able
to drive it hard....  heck, I wouldn't buy one without really seeing what it
could do!  Then they are usually sold at a very nice discount because of it.
Most people who buy new cars don't plan on keeping it forever anyways....
and the break-in period I think really only has real effect over 100K miles
or so....

I'm sure given it's rarity, they won't have any problems selling it!  There
are supposedly a few on thier way to our local dealer, which I want to check
out, but they are all sold already to customers who ordered them a long time
ago.  That and the 2.7tt.  One of the sales guys I have been talking is
supposed to call me when they come in so I can get a closer look.

They always tell me that if I want to drive one....ORDER ONE!  ;^)  They say
not to worry if I really don't want it as they'll have no problem selling
it!  Only problem is coming up with the deposit.  Otherwise, I would.
