Default Friend is thinking of picking up this 2003 A6 2.7T in the boston area, thoughts please

See the link to the e-bay auction below. The dealer said they were looking for $22,400 for the car and that would only come with the standard tail light warranty (something like 30 days).

just from looking at the pictures on the auction does anything stand out to anyone that looks wrong or unusual? Also any input on the price she should offer or items she should have checked would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks!<ul><li><a href="http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&amp;rd=1,1&amp;item=4573775 549">http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&amp;rd=1,1&amp;item=4573775 549</a</li></ul>

Default I'm not sure but other than the rims I dont see a sport package those are not sport seats. Someone

boston driver chime in here. I thought sports seats were part of sport package. The rest looks clean but turbos can be a problem and no ext. warranty has its pit falls.

Default 2nd - def not sport seats. Sits a little higher than my sport '02, as well. But

so what. As long as the buyer doesn't care about that or zenons, multifunction, etc. seems like a great buy at $20-22k. Just be sure to have it inspected - front end wear, CV joints, turbo boost, etc. And see if you can get a dealer to pull the service records and recalls.
