500 mile oil change

Have an oil charged scheduled for Friday but I think I will only have 350-400 miles. If I wait till Monday I may have more than 500. Is this a big deal either way?

I just bought mine about a month ago with roughly 2500 miles. They did the first oil change when they got the car @2500miles. There's no record of any maintenance done to this car besides that. I think you're fine, don't worry about it.

I did my first oil change around 1500 miles and the second around 4500 miles. I am coming up on 9000 miles but will probably do my third around 10000 miles.

Not real important, but the sooner the better.
Flush out any contaminates from manufacture and initial break-in.

I wanted to do mine at 500 but it ended up at 980 because the car is so fun to drive the miles added up fast.

I scheduled mine at the dealership to use up the free oil change before it expired. It ended up at like 625 miles. It was torture, I hated the dealership touching it. Should have just done it myself.

Anywhere from 5 to 15 is fine, your rear differentials first dump and fill at 1500 is more important in my opinion
