Default 2018 NX F-Sport Break In?

Hey Guys..

Like my IS350, there are talks about not revving the vehicle for the first 500 miles so the car engine can break in.. On my new NX 300, I've smell slight burning rubber/engine scents on the day I took off lot... is this normal?

Normal. Some oils and grease will burn off. Unless there is smoke. That's not normal.

I smelled the same thing on my NX 300 F-Sport when I took mine home. I figured it was normal because the NX 300 F-Sport that I test drove at the dealership (along with another RX 350) all had that oil burning smell after shutting off. Both of those vehicles also had under 20 miles on the odometer. I'm figuring it is the burning in period and it should go away after some time. I'm at around 330 miles on the odometer.
