How many miles until full break In

I currently have 690 miles on my SH-AWD and can't wait until I can experience the actual torque and 0-60 speed. i'm tired of reading reviews, I have to see it or feel it to beleive it!

That being said, how many miles would the experts recomend before you can go ahead and floor the pedal?

Help assure your vehicle’s future
reliability and performance by paying
extra attention to how you drive
during the first 600 miles (1,000 km).
During this period:
Avoid hard braking for the f irst
200 miles (300 km).
Avoid full-throttle starts and rapid
acceleration.

With all this said, the salesman on my first test drive gunned it with only 234 miles on the car, so go figure? I realize that it's a dealer car, but dayum who's gonna get that one as it might be jacked up already.
