Hey welcome to the forum and congrats on your new ride. First off IMS is an issue, but it is very rare, and there is no definitive causes for its rapid deterioration. As such their are measures you can take for prevention, one of which is the ims guardian, or changing the IMS for the LN upgraded piece. Other then that the signs are metal flakes in your oil filter and engine knocking from what I understand.
With that said I have owned my 2000 porsche for a year now and it has 116,000 miles on her and still running good. So I personally don't worry too much about it.
If you want in detail stories of IMS issues the search bar will give good results.
Other then that my suggestion is enjoy the car, and post some pics because we love pics.
