One more thing to consider is that the 06 6mt cars had serious oil consumption issues in some cars. Mine has no issues, but it is something to look out for, ie: check your oil frequently. With as low as your miles are on the car though, the extended warranty may still cover an engine replacement if your car does have consumption issues

you have a 3.5 rear end ratio, i would swap to the 3.7 or 3.9 and install a proper LSD (OS Giken, Quaffe etc etc)
YOu will only slide off the road if you push it past the limit. First thing i do for spirited driving is turn off the TCS/VDC and have no problems (yes i did slide off the track a couple weeks ago, but was pushing the car hard in race like conditions)
Got a track day at willow springs in less then two weeks, come out and learn to drive you new car. You will also learn how lame drag racing is once you get on the roadcourse.
