Nice ride....good luck with it.
Here is what I did when I bought my 2000 S70GLT.

Changed the oil and filter with non-synthetic at 600mi, 1500mi, and then at 2500mi.(BTW during this time I did break in the engine by not reving it too high....and not keeping the same RPM for a long time on the highway....like I varried the RPM....i'm from the old school)
Switched to Mobil-1 10W30 at 3500 miles and still do LOF's at 3500mi intervals with Mobil-1.
I just had my 30K mi. service done today at my dealer....and new pads(this is my third set up front) but no rotors all way round!
Best new car I have EVER owned.....buy a LONG SHOT!
