The IMS bearing is the Achille's heel for the M96 motor - if it goes bad it will destroy your engine ($15k+ to replace). The LN replacement ($2-4k) bearing is cheap insurance that your engine doesn't grenade. They also make the IMS guardian, which will detect when your original bearing is going bad.
Other hot issues are the water pump and the air/oil separator. I suggest you read up a lot on this forum and the others, better understanding of your car will make your ownership more enjoyable. Nice car! I'm sure you're going to love it!
