I would also recommend an oil change at 1,000 miles or after the break-in period. Not required, just prudent and worth the $110-$250.
What kind of aftermarket parts do you want? Car is still pretty new, so only a few items are available. Try our sponsors or the likes of www.suncoastporsche.com or the Tequipment section over at the Porsche web-site here:

WOW! Thanks for telling me! I would have been screwed at the rate I was going.
And as for aftermarket, I'm not looking for anything until my break-in period ends, but this is my daily commuter and I drive a lot so I expect it to be soon. I'm not even sure what I could do. Seems like all the parts this car has are top of the line, but I'm looking to increase engine power. I know that's a typical desire but this is a sports car, not to mention my only car, so I guess I don't blame myself.
Oh yeah, and I don't want any forced induction.
