So when I was actually driving the car home from buying it, it developed a misfire under load. I was pretty pissed at first because I feel like the dealership hid it since it magically didn't happen on my long test drive. However $25 later for 1 coil pack and with new plugs it was good. I was lazy and didn't change the plug on cylinder #6 because I have to remove a bracket to get to it and was in a hurry at the time, well a couple days ago under load cylinder 6 was pulling the same crap. Replaced the plug and swapped around the coil pack just in case, well the misfire followed the coil pack so I ordered a new one. So I had to spend 50 bucks, not too annoyed as long as this new coil pack fixes it all (fingers crossed). I'm just filing it under a tune up, new oil this weekend will go in as well as double checking the "lifetime" trans fluid. It was a one owner car maintained at the dealership so I'm hoping for no more surpirses. Only drawback to being maintained at the dealer is they went w those uncomfortably long factory recommended oil change intervals.
