Check body panels for irregularities of course, paint etc. Check ride for shimmy and vibration up to highway speeds. Check alignment on test drive. Finally, check for leftover adhesive from factory wrap on paint.

Yes, but don't focus on the car, that is exactly what the dealer wants you to do. Spend more time on the purchase/lease contract, that is where your problems are most likely to show up.

It is very unlikely that you will find something wrong with the car at the time you are picking it up.
