Make sure that the dealer goes to the extra trouble to clean the wheels of all Cosmoline. It is a bear to do yourself without removing the wheels.

Check the air pressure. Most often they are delivered over inflated.

Don't sign the paperwork until you are satisfied with the paint/bodywork.

Leather surfaces should all fit tight without any bulges are loose parts.

Make sure all the lights work.

If you want the doors to lock when you reach a certain speed have the dealer program that at delivery.

The key can be programmed for a longer delay time. If you want that done now is the time.

Read the manual on-line first (your can find it here) or read the sticky under complaints here. And pay attention to the delivery speech given by your sales person.

And if you stall it you must move the key all the way back to the left before restarting.

Since some clutch problems have occurred in the first few miles of ownership a 20-30 mile test drive is recommended before accepting the car. Other problem issues can be noted at this time as well.
