What to watch out for when picking up new RDX at dealership

Picking up a new 2018 RDX Elite (Canadian equivalent of Advance) at the dealership next week. Is there anything we should watch out for when picking up the car?

Thank you

basically looking for manufacturing defects or dealership mishaps.
make sure all body panels and their gaps are straight!
make sure all electronics are working, pretty good time to go over electronics with salesman if you havent done that already.
looking for dealership mishaps like bumps and bruises!

Having worked at a dealership way back when I was in my late teens, I've seen damage that got repaired without the customer even knowing.

Which is why I brought my paint thickness gauge to my last two vehicle deliveries. My friend brought a used car over the other day. One panel measured 17 mils...the usual is about 5 mils.
