Congratulations!

Just keep it below 7000 rpm for the 1st 1000 miles, in line with the user's manual.

It's 1000 km, so 600 miles

Procedure is to stop the car and put your left foot on the brake. Fully and quickly depress loud pedal(Mooty TM) with right foot, and enjoy

Researching around this subforum will find it's a bit varied but a quite popular topic. I'd say do whatever you are most comfortable with, but there is a break-in period per Porsche

Congrats!!!
Pedal to the metal...No need to baby. Motor broken in.
If you want to take it easy.. Walk the RPM range 4K-7K and back for a few hundred miles. Dump the oil at 500-700 miles.. Then open it up.
Just dont drive it at constant RPM all the time.. Walk the RPM range..
Just my view.
