So I just recently bought a new 2014 red mustang coupe manual. Is there anything I should know about it, or any advice? I.e. Running the car, the clutch, or even making it look nicer?
Hahaha jk, although that's what it has felt like with mine all winter
As far as "breaking it in", I would just avoid long highway trips that maintain a constant RPM for the first 100-300 miles. Its better to break it in with varying RPM. As far as the clutch...nothing really. Have you owned/operated a manual transmission in the past? I wouldn't do anything differently.
As far as making it look nice, don't ever bring it through an automatic car wash or use a buffer/oscillating polisher. You will get tons of swirl marks. Swirl makes are especially noticeable on the Race Red color.

Just vary you speed on the autobahn. I would change the rpms every 30 min or so if using cruise. These cars really do not need a break in other than what the owners manual suggests. You can locate that on line to read up on your car before you get it.
Majority of cars have a 4k miles break in period. so change your oil at 3k miles. and to make it look good my friend....theres millions of combinations to make a mustang look different...
Never seen a 4000 mile break in on a newer Mustang. Maybe I missed it but there was not a big notice in the manual. My 2011 was maybe 1000 miles....if that.
