New cars are aren't worth the premium, even if they come with an extra 22% nitrogen in their tires for life. It's a ploy to get your service done at their service center, which is the second ripoff - dealerships. That said, I bought my current car at a stealership just because the particular car I wanted is so darned difficult to find.
I took the car in for a recall replacement of a power steering hose and they came up with half a dozen things to work on even though I had just purchased the car months ago.
In summary, N2 is fine if it's free, but dealerships are to be avoided.

I'm sure it was due to the 20% O2 and not due to the 180mph.
