Congrats on your upcoming purchase of a Crossfire. There are lots of threads with posts on nearly any issue you come across during ownership. Just perform an advance search and you'll find whatever you're looking for. And you can post an issue and there will be several owners that can point you in the right direction to find what you need.

Get both FOBS. Or a better price. Try the key in the door to lock and unlock as well as remote operation.
ask WHO does the work on it.
ask if there are any modifications done to it. A favorite mod on here is to disable the TPMS light.
What trouble have they had with it? CPS, SKREEM, RCM and sticky key are common.
How old are the tires? low millage cars can have old tires. Count a TPMS $160ish replacement in your future if the owner didn't get new ones already.
How does it drive?
Any crashes?
It WILL go through tires about 20K-30K miles

A bit late for you but there are a few threads with tips on buying a Crossfire.
If you click on the highlighted red link in my signature “Index ......” just a few lines down from the top you will see “Tips on buying a Crossfire”.
The tips still apply though.
