Gelbster - the PPI list of items non-conforming is very short and most are simple fixes. Here's the listing:

HVAC Control head malfunction: no display, yet controls operate the system
Right outer tie rod boot ripped, no play.
Right lower sway bar boot ripped, no play.
Drivers side cup holder non-functional
Non-matching tires front to back (sumitomo in front, Continentals in rear - 30% wear on all)
Front and rear pad thickness 60%, rotors - no sign of wear or lip
Diagnostic results - No faults present
Interior - paint worn in several points on center console and door card armrests (Sport design pkg - gray paint wearing at contact points).
Front left wheel arch appears damaged in pictures provided and may need to be replaced (wheel well plastic covering).

That's all, out of an extensive (approx. 150 point) inspection, diagnostic, and road test. From what this info provides, it's all things I can repair or replace with little difficulty. I know that there are things that can still go wrong or unseen, but it does provide a good sense of purchasing a solid vehicle that can be driven right away.

I'd appreciate any feedback provided prior to finalizing my decision.

Thanks
Joe
