Default Test Drive

Hey Everyone, This is my first post on the board. I'm in the market for a new (slightly used) car, and I'm 99% sure a crossfire is the ticket. I'm going to test drive a few in the next few weeks (all 2004-2005, under 25K miles, $13-15k) at a somewhat local dealer.

My question to all of you is what should I look out for when I test drive? I have looked over the site pretty thoroughly, so I have a reasonable understanding of the TSB's and such, but are there any other things to watch out for? Also, I've always been against buying extended warranties, but do you think it may be wise in this situation? I've bought a few slightly used volvos in the past with under 30k miles, and repairs on them for the short periods i owned them probably cost 5x as much as an extended warranty would have cost- bad luck, i know.

Any input would be greatly appreciated, and once I get one I'll post pictures.

Jonathan Floyd
