Congrats Dtruck96, your going to love the car!
Drive the car like you stole it. The manufacturing process and the way they hone the cylinders you’re set to go after 300 miles. Go WOT, not from a standing start, for a quarter mile then let it cool off then do it again. Do this every now and then the first 300 miles; I believe that is considered the break-in period. Just don't over-torque or get red-line happy with manual shifting for a couple hundred miles, use the right oil and smile a lot.
Again, welcome to the family.
