Inspect the car in daylight, not under lights and never at night!

I would say read everyones complaints and look for them on the car. Example accuator, muffler not even, HID allignment, cup holder, missing trunk-net, scratched gearshift template, etc.

So far my only problem was the SRS light wouldn't go off, fixed under warranty.

Is the server time off. I'm seeing posts posted at 1am. I'm EST and it's 11:15pm.

I can't believe nobody has mentioned this yet.............MAKE SURE THEY DIDN'T SCREW THE FRONT PLATE INTO THE BUMPER!!!!!!!!!!
If you ever plan on removing the front plate, it is going to look ugly as HELL with the two drilled holes.
