Hey! Welcome! Do you mean 335 or is it really 325? Anyways, it should be in the manual on how to break it in properly. Just don't drive it over a 100mph and keep it below 4.5k rpm for the first 1,200 miles. After that, you're good.

Some have a different view to breaking in a car. They argue that you should steadily rev it higher at some points during the break in interval (something about the seals setting better), i should say that it is better to follow the Manufacturer's recommendation.

I've heard different things. Porsches easy does it for first 5000, but it is good to go, and I've got an obsessive friend with a Mini who won't go over 4000k until he crosses 10k (Which is going to be a while).
Generally, IMO, these days cars are well-built enough to with-stand some spirited driving, but it's always smart to play it safe for the first couple thousand miles (i.e. no burnouts) Ask the dealer if you want exact stats. Could we have pics of your car too?
