Thought I'd say congrats here too, I'm sure you'll get used to it relatively quickly, I went from a Ford KA to a Clio 200 which has similar power to the GT86/BRZ and that wasn't too giant of a leap (still handled like a lil gokart but more power), your challenge is if you've never driven a RWD before and it starts to rain or the roads are a bit greasy then you'll start to have some trouser moments when the back end kicks out when you don't expect it and then some fun moments when you egg it on, but as long as your "relatively" sensible, you'll be fine....then again your not running the stock eco/no grip Prius tyres so you might be ok 
The day I picked mine up it was nice and sunny, sat at work twiddling my thumbs and then the moment came when I could finally pick her up......and it start to bloody rain doesn't it.....so as I pull out, the very first round (small greasy one by the Coventry Toyota dealer) and the back end slipped out....really wasn't expecting it and shat myself.....all I could think was that I really didn't want to bin it before even getting it home LOL.
P.S. Jealous that you've got all those mods on already, I'm having to wait till October to change insurance as esure are pants with mods as well as save up a bit of cash for it all.

Looks good!! Although get the supercharger kit on it when Subaru release it!! I love, love, love the styling of these, but I think (my own opinion) that they're too under powered, but again, just my opinion.
I bet you can't wait until tomorrow!
