Thanks guys! It's a done deal. They will replace the TPMS sensors and some minor touch ups. They slipped in the $699.00 dealer fee.. But hey with the help from you folks I was able make an educated decision.
She comes home tomorrow night, I will follow up with some pictures. Thanks again!

Having just purchased a 2008, I think you just purchased a great car at a great price. Enjoy the new ride - I am loving mine.

You got an excellent car at a great deal. Loaded with options too. Can't wait to see pics!

Btw, if the dealer offers a free detail, i would decline and find your own reputable high end detailer in your area (or do it yourself). Most of the time those dealer detailers do more damage than good.

Ok guys a couple of questions..

The dealer said they replaced all four TPMS sensors.. But it's still not displaying the PSI readings on the MMI. Do I need to drive a certain number of miles before they display or is something else going on? I drove from the dealer about 10 miles.

Also I accidentally disabled the turn signal indicators on the side mirrors and can't seem to get them back on.. Can you please let me know how I can enable again?

TPMS will show up after 25 miles of driving or so. I don't understand how you can turn the indicator off?

Go to Car > Tire Pressure > Change Tires and after 15 - 20 minutes of driving pressures will appear.
