Break in Period

Hope everyone is settling down after reading all the reviews!
I will be getting my LBB manual in July.

I was wondering about your opinions on a break in period. I was under the impression that modern cars didn't really require one?
This will be my first "performance car"/M car.
I would like to do everything right so any advice from you guys would be greatly appreciated
Also any pages/links with information on care of this type of car would be great.

Things like the type of fuel you will all be using(Shell Vpower), protection from stone chips.

Thanks!

Thank you Chris.

Apologies to the rest, I don't often use forums and didn't think to search for an old post. Will do so in the future.
