Don't try to fill the gas tank by the fuel gauge reading. Just stop at the first click off. The guages read low on a lot of the cars.
Keep an eye on the rear tires inside tread since it burns out first and will get you in a lot of trouble in slick conditions.

Redline it at least once every time you drive it.
A reminder that you bought the right car.

...don't eat yellow snow!
Oh you wanted to know something about the car itself?!? Well I also agree with taking it to the track to see what it is truly capable of. It will amaze you.

Don't lift in a corner. This mostly applies to wet conditions but it applies to those cases where you are not driving smart or get caught unawares in the dry also.
If you do find that you are into it absolutely too hot, then a little lift should tighten your turn like right f'n now. Be prepared to ease back into that throttle and maybe even apply a little opposite lock and you might save yourself both dollars and embarassment.
Slow in fast out...that's the Porsche mantra.
