Some of the things Ill be checking for when my time comes based on previous posts in this forum and others:

Dents and Scratches (Hail Damage)
Paint Runs or Bubbles
Misalligned Exhaust Tips
Rubber shavings in the rear wheel well. (and rear tire tread depth)
Missing Parts: (such as)
Keyless Go Button
The plastic piece over the radiator (with the cup holders in it)
Tool Kit w/ tire pump
Front License Plate Bracket (If required)

But then again, Im a picky SOB when I pay almost $50,000 for a vehicle. [sm=lildevil.gif]
