So I take it you didn't fly out and look at the car before buying? Bummer.
Now that you pointed out the dent I can see it in the sales pictures as well.
The dent can be fixed really easy and the interior hump between the rear seats can be replaced as well.
Drive in good health ...... still a very nice looking car.

On the "scratches and dent on rear fender," that looks foreign, as if some acetone would wipe it right off. A dingman is cheap if they pay the bill. Interior can also get repaired, used car lots typically have a guy that comes weekly to fix up used cars.
I had a 6" cut in my wife's old RX300 leather and it was almost perfect. The only telltale sign of any repair is that it was a little glossier and that was blamed on the high humidity.
They need to fix your car like they would on any used car, and they need to have a very good f'ing explanation for your mileage.

I'm confused because I wanted to order a new 4S with a spoiler and the dealer couldn't make it happen, yet yours clearly has a spoiler.
I ordered a turbo instead not only over the spoiler, but I was over optioned on a 4S and the price wasn't too far from a Turbo anyway.

That's disheartening about the dealer not being more straightforward regarding the condition of the interior and the dent, but those things are easily fixable...AND YOU HAVE A FANTASTIC LOOKING 4S! A mobile interior repair service can sort out those scratches. The fun you're going to have with that car will soon eclipse this disappointment. Enjoy!

That mileage would annoy me in a 20k car, less a 80k car. Regarding the scratches and dents, I would ask to see if they would order to replace the part or have them reimburse you for it. You're at their mercy though- sorry they weren't more up front. That's a fantastic looking car though!

A firm typed out official looking threatening letter to the dealership...would be enough to get some sort of compensation for this situation...if you know what I mean...
