Would like opinion on 2003 "S" I am Looking to Buy

I have been looking for a while and have come across a 2003 S will the following:

2003
35K miles
in service date May 2003
Gray with Gray leather interior which I like - both in near excellent/near perfect condition

Options list is short
18 inch wheels
PSM
HiFi
CD storage in dash
Wind Blocker

they are asking $32.5K

Are there any options (like power seats, etc) that I am going to realy miss?

Also what is your opinion of the deal?

thanks for helping a newbie out

wembely, I don't think you will miss the power seats at all. You might miss having heated seats.

price

FYI: I just passed on an '03 S sold by a Boston dealer. It sold for $34.9K plus another $2K for pre-cert. It had 33K miles. So the price you are being quoted sounds good.

that's the first year they offered the Box with a glass rear window. And they made some enhancements to the front and rear bumpers. There was also a tiny HP increase of 8 ponies.
Ask to see if all the 30K maintenance was performed.
Does it have HID headlights or he less expensive Halogens?
