Again, great comments. I didn't think of things like shifter knobs and driver's door side seat edges. More good things to look for.

More info on the car:
White linen/leather interior
Targa
Claimed 2 owners
No service records
Repainted 10 y/o, which dealer says is "just okay"
NY most of it's CarFax documented life, now in NE

The repaint part leaves me with a big ?? Why at only 10 yrs a new paint job and only "okay"? If a dealer admits in an ad that it's only okay, it must not be very good. Maybe even "bad!"

I just didn't get from this dealer that he wasn't being straight up with me. I know a bit about it's history since I know where he bought it from...like the repainted history part. And I know the maximum he paid from the previous dealer. I was trying to see if he'd be honest and tell me more history. I kept asking him if there's anything in it's history, any records of any modifications, changes. He just kept saying no and went on and on about the CarFax report in answer to my question regarding service records. I really didn't like his answers and the vibe I was getting.
