2015 C300 4matic Luxury

Soon to receive my 2015 C300 4matic. I have bought it from Carvana. It has a bunch of packages installed (Distronic plus, parktronic, COMAND, active curve illumination, to name a few). I am excited about it, but also a bit apprehensive about its condition and functionality. Carvana did say that all packages installed originally installed on the vehicle are still working. Looks pretty neat in the pictures and the 3D turntable view. Can anyone give any suggestions on what things I should be looking at in the first look? Any experienfes with Carvana?
Thanns all.

Apologies for late reply. I wasn't getting the right time and right light to snap a picture. But here goes.

2015 C300 4matic
Everything on it is in working condition (surprisingly). I do have very minute reservations on it. Got it at almost 85,000 miles. Runs smooth, although the interior does make some noise here and there on bumps, like the leather dragging or something. The tires were pretty worn when it came from the dealership, even though their standard is 5/32 tread. When I measured it, it was like 3/32. Will change them soon to non-run flats pretty soon.
It does run a little louder when accelerating, and also has this constant electrical hum like sound coming from the front when I press the accelerator. I read somewhere it could be the idler pulley. Its definitely not the radio. I checked it with the radio powered off. Kinda annoying, but living with it for now.
This is my first Mercedes, so I'm still in the honeymoon phase,

Thanks everyone!
