Default Thinking of buying this...

Hi everyone! Buying this baby tomorrow..

Anything I should be aware of when test driving the vehicle before taking home? What to look for, and etc? Is it a good price?

On my research i've read no common issues beside cold start idles on CT200h, but i just don't know enough about hybrid cars..... and this will be my very first hybrid!

I would go 2014 if at all possible. Many many changes, including to the engine.

I would drive it long hard hot and long to just make sure no weird noises or shaking. also make sure you're the first to start it up when cold. (dont let dealer pre warm it up) that may mask any cold start knocking.

there's literally nothing else to check on the CT other than normal stuff like interior wear etc.
