Brakes 2005 IP Sedan purchase questions

pics can be seen here

Dealer's advertised price was 16,866. I walked in and they immediately told me 15,810, which they claim is what they paid for it. I don't buy that line of bull****, seeing as how it's a 1-owner Tennessee car, so I'm guessing they bought it at an auction for $10-12k.

Car has 72k miles on it. No bose, no nav, which to me is a good thing. No sport package and no spoiler either, pretty low options car AFAIK. There are a total of 5 tiny rusted dings on the car:
Dr A-pillar
Psg A-Pillar
Dr Roof (pictured)
Dr C-pillar
Behind the sunroof (press the rear of the sunroof down and you can see it)

The rear bumper needs to be resprayed; the top of the bumper (where it meets the trunk lid) has 3-4 deep scratches, and the passenger side of the bumper looks like the previous owner rubbed up against something black, another car maybe?

Other than that, there's no dings or dents what so ever on the entire car.

I'm thinking I'm going to walk in tomorrow and tell them $13,500 and I'll take the car. Thoughts, opinions, suggestions?

I don't see the dings and scratches in the pics. But, if they are there I would low ball on price. You chose a great year (2005) for the G35 sedan, though.

05 is probably my favorite. The 03-04 interior is appauling.

The rust isn't pictured because the guy I had with me evidently doesn't know how to take pictures of "all of the blemishes" *shakes head*. There is the 1 pic with the rust on the roof.
