Congrats on the car! I got 2 tips for you
1
VDC will not stop you from spinning out( do not rely on it)
2
The Vlsd does not lock the rear wheels the same way every time (it might suprise you at time)

Other than that have fun and enjoy the new car.

Welcome, and please be careful.

Vaguely similar to going on your first date with a chick from the Bunny Ranch in Vegas. The Z as my first car would have been a disaster, but I was pretty young and dumb with my first car.

Good luck OP!

Your sentence structure sucks *****.

Not everyone can afford the newer HR, hence the reason to buy a older Z.

Welcome and congrats OP

My first car was a '83 Mustang - spun it out in the rain, was pretty lucky to not hit anything or anybody. So my advice (like everyone else) BE CAREFUL!
