At first drive it as if was worth 10x what you paid for it. And drive like the proverbial "old lady". It can get away from you in a heartbeat if you aren't totally focused. Have respect for it's speed and handling.

Best advise-- use your head, be smart, learn how the car handles, and you handle it---and before you buy any Tricks or Goodies for the car invest money& time in a quality driving school--best money my wife and I invested when we bought our SPF.


I'd go with the fuel cell and extingusher, floor mats if they aren't standard now, and never cover the car soon after you have driven or the pipes will melt it--really a bummer--VOE.

Above all have fun.
