Default Advice on purchasing GS

Hey all, I'm in the market for a new car and after being on the fence for a while between the IS and the GS I think I've finally decided on the GS for the rarity and more spacious interior. I'm looking for a 2017-2020 GS350 F-Sport RWD and my budget is topped at $32k. After comparing options for a few weeks there's been one specific listing that's been sticking out the most and is priced very well (~$25k, ~57k miles) all of the other listings around this mileage and same trim are going for around 29-32k so I'm wondering how it's been up for so long with no buys. I'm going to give the dealership a call sometime soon to confirm that they still actually have it but also wanted to get y'all's opinion on it to see if I'm maybe missing something? The only thing I see is the panel below the passenger side headlight has some paint damage/chipping but that seems like it may be easy to touchup?

Hard to say, but looks like a typical NJ/NY car with damage on the front end. It may also have damage on the lower part of the rear bumper, but difficult to discern.

The car does not have a Mark Levison sound system, which is unusual so it may not have some other features/options usually found on GS 350 F-Sport models.

I'd say the car is fairly priced or even over-priced - considering it has some body damage and lacks at least one highly sought-after option, and is for sale on a small used car lot located in Newark, NJ. It looks like this used car lot doesn't care much about cleaning up their used car inventory... I would suspect this car is quite likely on the rough side - both inside and outside...

Obviously the previous owner(s) didn't care enough to get the damaged front end fixed, and a small used car lot in Newark, NJ certainly isn't going to either!
