First oil change on '03 CL-S

I'm coming up on 3000 miles. It still has the "break-in" oil. I've always used Mobil1 on my previous car and that's what I plan to use on the CL every 5000 miles after the 1st change.

So... should I follow the manual and do the first oil change at 7500 miles? It doesn't "feel" right! I checked it yesterday and it's already turning dark.
I drive about 50-75 miles a day, about 40 of that is highway the rest is traffic or city.
