If I end up with the car, I may switch that muffler out for the M2 one from eBay or just go get a used one from a wrecking yard.
Did you get the receipts for past servicing information? If the previous owner did not replace the muffler which I think is a relatively minor item, then what else has not been done in the past?

I would pass on this one unless you get the info but of course it is your decision.
If you proceed with the PPI which entails relatively few $$$ then that is fine.
Find out from the PPI shop what it would cost to fix everything and then if you want to buy it offer asking price minus the cost of repairs. I got $3500 off of the asking price on mine. Conversely you may decide that you do not want it....
