New 2011 RS V6 Owner

Got her almost 2 months ago now, the first car I've ever bought. Coming from a dinky 90s ranger this has been a blast, but I can probably use some wisdom from the experts when it comes to maintainence.

Got her at 72K miles with a missfire and a few bcm codes. Lose cable fixed the missfire, and showed that the coils are effectively brand new. On the docket currently are a full brake rotor/pad replacement, new rear tires, and possibly a new battery. Is there anything else I should check up on that isn't immediately obvious to a mechanic's once-over?

I'm also excited to toss on a cai(+tune), though I haven't decided which yet (vararam looks so sick,) and by end of year hopefully a catback as well.

I'm planning for it to be my daily for the next 5-6 years, and ive already put nearly 5k miles on it. I've never been much of a car guy, but this has got me really excited to learn.
