    I don't see anything that would be a red flag, but the only way to know is to go look and drive. I like the black optic pkg but prefer the alcantara seats. Low mileage, price seems a touch high to me, but you still have factory warranty. See if the dealer can pull any service records.

    Thanks for the reply. I did test drive it briefly with the salesman in the car and he wouldn't shutup. I'm going in for another test drive this weekend. The only thing that's sort of holding me back is the fact the there is like 1 month warranty left and it's not a CPO (but eligible for extended warranty for somewhere between $2500-$4000). As for the price Ill try to shave off a couple of Gs seeing that I'm putting down 25k cash.

    Beautiful looking car. Get the service records, have them do a complete check on the car, and definitely get the extended warranty.

    Why not ask them to certify it?

    I spoke with the gentleman and he said they don't have the service records but he emailed me all the work (and original window sticker) that was completed once the previous owner traded it in.
    This is an interesting line item in the work order the dealership sent me:

    Huh! That sets off some alarm bells. The other alarm bell is that the 5 and 15 K mile was not performed at the dealer. Was the 15 K mile service performed? CPO or extended warranty...

    I have no idea if the price is fair. What's the high Blue book on it?
