looking at a low miliage 96 3.2TL

I found a nice 1996 3.2 TL with 60k on the clock...paint is real nice (looks like it was garaged its whole life) but what should I look for in a car that 11 years old. It might have sit for a few months without being started....any other big concerns?

Check to see if all the TSBs were addressed. This can be done by bringing the VIN to a dealer. There were some serious issues with 96s that should be addressed. I believe that the dealer should fix them for free since the car has such low miles.

P.S. Welcome!
