nice car.
my tip, keep on eye on your needles. Make a mental note of how long it takes your coolant to point to 12 o'clock. It will take your oil about twice that to come up to temp. Don't rev the engine high before that.
Also, check your coolant level before you get in the car. Try lighting the tank with an LED flashlight behind the tank. Your coolant is should all one color, preferably pink which is the factory flavor. With that kind of low mileage the coolant tank may be brittle at this point. And make sure you have the most recent coolant cap from 2004. Replace your oil cap while you're at it. Over time these caps loosen up and can't hold the minimum seal required. And use a decent oil, you bought a Porsche not an old truck. I switched from Castrol Edge 5-40 to Motul 8100 Xcess 5-40. It's about twice the cost but the higher protection is worth it.
