Turned out the car has a small leak in the chain housing gasket or somewhere else in the motor. My mechanic estimates it'll cost 3-4k to track down and fix, the spoiler is leaking hydraulic fluid and the tabs that hold a tail light are cracked. I will be turning it down.

I was thinking of disregarding the issues as the car is practically new , but it'll cost me 6k to repair all these items and my practical side says why pay 45k to buy a car that leaks oil and needs 6k of repairs.
