I know a few forum members who are dealers so I asked them about this one. Based on the auction it sold for $30,400 so $32,000 seems like a good deal for you.
See attached pic -- it's the one at the bottom.

Heel & Toe
I used to own this car. I bought it new in North Carolina, but it was transferred from a dealer in Knoxville, TN. It gave me good service for three years (excellent mileage - 30mpg on the open road), but I took it to the dealership to get a noise in the differential checked out and I saw and fell in love with a Jetstream Blue Grand Sport. Long story short, I wish I kept the '07. It had 9000 miles on it when I traded it. and they allowed me 37K on trade two years ago. I may still have some documents pertaining to the car if you are interested.
P.S. - If you bought it and it still had the K&N air intake on it, I have the original airbox and filter. It's yours for the price of shipping.
Also - I took it in for service about 8 times - mostly because of battery drain and door lock problems, but twice for the differential noise. Don't know where the other 25 records came from.

I would've said that 33 records is a lot, and you need to ck the number of owners. But you just got lucky: the original owner chimed in, and he put 7 of those 14K miles on it.
imo, you need to chat with him, do a carfax and autocheck (the former, the dealer should give you). and then have the car checked out thoroughly by someone who knows C6s if it's not you.
