I'm looking to purchase a used Kia Forte 1.6SX very soon

. Should there be anything I must look out for when inspecting the car

? Will of course bring along a foreman with me to check but I hope to be able to pin point the problems on my own just in case.
Of most reviews I've read so far, nothing states out of the ordinary. To all Kia Forte owners, your input will be much appreciated.
Forte is my choice compared to the City & Vios.
Thanks!

a little lag on the pedal when u press especially from standstill (install ETC can solve)
and the biggest problem is
