Picking up the car tomorrow. Bought it used from a local dealer. White/Black interior 13k miles auto. More pics after I get it.

Anything I should know or look out for?

13K and 2 yrs old...not bad....have the dealer check the battery strength, close the top,hose it down (dont force the water in) and look for leaks (ensure top has a good seal all around), looks also for leaks on the inside under the driver/pass side....those are the things that are bugging us the most...Oh, yes...are the windows tinted? If yes, are they scratched (mainly driver side)...if no...use moleskin to prevent the scratch...

Welcome BTW.

Ok I have been reading alot about the water leaks issue. I have read the tech bulletins regarding same. I am wondering those that do have leak issues, do you park your car on a flat surface when it rains? The leaks may coincide with our driveways being at a slight incline. I have a meeting Wendsday morning with the west coast regional VP in regards to the leak. Mine seems major but of course to me a gallon of water is a major issue. It never really dries out and now I have a smell and mold problems, of course this is also a health problem. So I am asking those with leaks do you park your car on a slant? Please responde in kind I am trying to solve this issue once and for all.. Thanks
