Those all have some of the info you'll need. Basically go to vfaq.com and read until your eyes bleed. Then you'll be ready to ask some more pointed questions and from there we can spread whatever info you need from us. I wish I could be in your position again, getting the car for the first time.

Have fun and ask away when you want.
