Looking at a fairly clean 2014 base- 101k miles, no sport chrono pkg, PDK. Wheels are only mod that I know of. Carfax came back clean (4 owners) with some good service history including full brakes/rotors, AC comrpressor, several coolant hoses, fluid services etc. No open recalls. Interior looks great, black leather with premium seats. Independent dealer purchased at auction, so he hasn't had a lot of personal time with the car but claims no issues or notable blemishes.
Researched plenty, but any other tips or things to look for would be appreciated!
I assume you know about VIN Analytics, and have pulled the build sheet, know the options, etc. I don't know of any specific issues with 2014 .1s. Some people had problems with PDK and at 100k miles it would give me a little pause, but the issues are pretty few and far between. If it doesn't have leather door cards, a lot of cars have separation at the top of the doors. Get a PPI and an over-rev report (its pretty hard to over-rev a PDK). If those check out you've done your dilligence and should have a solid fun car.
