Sounds like a pretty good deal.

I wouldn't worry too much about the nicks and chips. Even if it is repainted to brand-new condition, you'll get new nicks and chips soon enough. Actually, I have had several cars repainted, and if given a choice, I would choose not to do that. The body shops never put the cars back together in the same way as the original, no matter how good a paint job they did -- I've found missing screws, missing fasteners, uneven gaps, etc..

If there are new tires, then make sure they are of the right size.

The rear window can be cleaned or replaced.

As to what TSBs are done on the car, the dealer can pull up a history from Honda based on the VIN and it should show what updates have been made to it. If not, then you can find the list of TSBs here and then ask the dealer to do them.

Good luck.

The alignment info is on page 245 of the 2000 model owners manual.

Well I found out that the tires are Michelin Pilot Sport A/S's 225/50's in the rear 205/55's up front. They are supposed to be an all season tire... Well 2 more days then the test drive and I go from there, (damn work is kicking my ass or else it would be sooner!)

Alright, I went to the dealer and once I looked around more... I hopped into a Sebring Silver Black interior 03' that was on disply in the show room(last 03 they will have til spring). Well anyway Im 99.9% sure I will be picking up the car sometime this week for around the price of $29,000 and its BRAND NEW! Just need to get some credit issues straight because I will be financing the car for 4-5 years (I need to convince my parents to cosign because Im only 21 even tho my credit is good....) Ill post up pics when its in my driveway.
