Have their detail polish out those headlights.
Surprised they are selling a car in that condition. If they won't change out those wheels then I'd...

Kinda where I'm at. Wheels need addressed and lenses do too. They said the lenses were just "airing" out which I knew was total bs. Clearly crazed cracking clear.

Would be a hard pass for me. Corrosion is a big no no to me.

Got a set of wheels with Hankook tires on them I would make a good deal on.

Much better deal! 3 Years, Less miles, 1 owner and I am guessing no corrosion. Glad you didn't get the other one. Enjoy.

I think you dodged a bullet there. 6 owners?? There has to be a reason. Now it's someone else's problem, and not yours.

Carfax is widely known to be highly unreliable..
My understanding is that only services performed by shops that subscribe to Carfax are included in their reports.

I bought my IMMACULATE 2012 GS 3LT with 14k miles at the height of used car prices in 2021 at $40k. I’d keep looking. The problems you see may say there are problems you can’t see. Good luck.

If you're not dead set on a Grand Sport, $35k will get you a super nice base C6.
