Default New guy - New "beater" TC

Hey peeps
New guy here. I am 33 probability older than the average TC driver. I am picking up an 08 with 115k miles today. This will be my commuter as my other vehicles are not fuel efficient and I am sick of filling up every other day.

Anyway I am crossing my fingers this little guy does well for me. It is a CL find. One owner and appears he was a car guy and took good care of it. I am nervous about the high miles. We'll see. I'll keep u guys posted. Anything i should look out for?

Oil consumption. Most tc's do it I usually have to add a little between oil changes. Shouldn't affect reliability if you dont run it low.
