New car only 200 miles, but have rust on the outer edgers of the rotor where the brake pad should meet and scrub off but doesn't. About 1 inch of rust lines, seems as if brakes aren't making full contact.

Too early and have to wait for brakes to bed or have to manually bed brakes? (60-5mph emergency stops)

You've hardly used the car. Brakes haven't had time to hardly wear yet.

You don't have to resort to the 5 x 60 >0 just yet, just drive with a little more aggressive braking than normal.

I'd worry more about the hubs rusting in time......
