Was thinking the same thing

Matt there are some very interesting information on The Motor Oil Geeks channel around oil sample testing. I think you have done the right thing about changing the oil at around 500 miles. Even daily driver cars should change the oil at the first 500 miles as the engine does 'Break in' Even though people think that the thing of the past, all modern engines should be changed at the first 500 miles. Also, don't neglect your transmission oil, too. That's very important. Find his video from about 4 months ago called 'New engine break-in truth or myth?' Another good one to watch is about Prefilling the oil filter 👌

Every time I see that car, I yearn for it. Beautiful spec.

As a fellow obsessed person, might I suggest taking all the tools for the oil change and putting them in one small kit. Duplicates of the main set, of course. I have this for my 991.2 GT3. I also use a beam type torque wrench as I do not trust small click type. For wheels I use the gedore remoter which I find better than the precision instruments I used previously. I think you will like the stahlwille torque wrenches. The digital 1/4 is nice, I just can’t bring myself to use it on oil changes, the other ones are also nice too. I may be getting this wrong but they say you don’t have to wind them down to store (I do) and the ones with the universal hole at the end allows you to torque whatever you want. Finally, on wrenches, I don’t think you will like the stahlwille 13 series as they are short and the head are wide, I do think you will like the 14 series as well as the stabil, corona, and whatever the ones ones are called. I bought all the stahl (get it) so I have them. For regular pattern wrenches I use Hazet SPC which are the same as 600N just “special price.” I do need to get the Hazet traction profile and full set of ratcheting Hazets to complete the Hazet wrench set. Just have not pulled the trigger as frankly I need a bigger box for Hazet and have not made up my mind as to what assistejt trolly I want. Oh, have you tried Gedore wrenches? I have a pretty full set of those and am especially a fan of the B type. Go wildcats.

if you drain the oil overnight you have to put in like 6 quarts, instead of like the 3.5-4 when you just quickly do it, so the best way to get all the oil out is just drain overnight that's what we do at my dealer. the plastic drain plug is only on vehicles made after may 26th 2023. also your first service is paid for already when you buy the car so you kinda waisted your time.
