You have had some good advice. Drive carefully and grow into the ca. Learn it characteristics a little at a time. Do nothing abrupt. You have lots of throttle control available. When you get the chance, go to a good high performance driving school and drive a car on its edges safely.
I got the fuel cell. Even if I drove my SPF as a cruiser, I would not trust the trucks, SUVs and others hitting me in the rear when I stop. I feel safer that the fuel will not catch on fire as easily if I get hit in the rear. Hopefully you also will never have to use the fire estinguisher. Even so, my insurance agent was glad to see that my car had one. It is not a mistake to get too much, but it is a mistake to skimp, especially on an safety related item in the car. I also got the 5-point lap belts. You may need them if you go to an SCCA or other driver school. Some schools require complete lap belts for driver and instructor. The sub-belt also keep the lap belt around the hips and not working its way up to the soft parts of the body. You get use to it and it becomes automatic. It also impresses anyone that rides with you. It speaks "race car" while adding safety. Enjoy your car.
