Default Break in period for 2016 sport?

Hi all, new to accords and to this forum.

Do you recommend any break in period on a new accord? (2016 sport)

... or is this generally not needed any more with modern car design.. thanks for all and any input!

I can remember when the owner's manual for new cars said, "..do not exceed 50 mph for the first 500 miles"... Glad those days are long gone

If there were a 'break-in' period for the new Honda, I'm sure it would have been listed in the manual

When I test drove my 2015 Sport, it had 2 miles on the odometer... and I did not 'baby' it. Now it has almost 3K miles and continues to run like a champ

I would suggest driving at a pace that you find comfortable... and, have fun

Owner's Manual is your friend.
