I will be taking a look at this car in the next couple of days. http://www.cars.com/go/search/detail...ngId=115689981

Any opinions? I plan on getting a PPI before any agreement. The carfax doesn't quite make sense to me. Does that mean that it was an untitled "executive car"? Also, I assume that the CPO transfers to a new owner. Is that correct?

Thanks for any assistance!
My take on the biggest changes are:
-- 2014 got new side marker lights and different headlights
-- color combos changed throughout the years
-- 2012+ with DCT got the "right for upshift, left for downshift" paddles
-- 9/2010 (?? not quite sure if this is the right date??) production cars had different TPMS sensors from the newer ones

Not 100% sure what your carfax means. My speculation is that is was a press fleet / demo car. Proceed with caution in any case. Car is almost certainly hammered on hard if it wasn't owned by the same individual for several years.
