Default 2014 F-Type V6 Water on floor

I took a 2014 F-Type V-6 for a test drive today. I loved the car but it had a couple issues. First thing I noticed after driving for 10-15 minutes is on a turn water appeared to come out of the duct just above the gas pedal. I had sandals on or I wouldn't have noticed it. the A/C was on and it is very high humidity. We also had light rain but I don't think it was rain related. Second the trim over the traction control buttons seems to be holding the buttons down. Cant click on either button. The last thing was the the intermittent wipers. Couldn't get them to work in the rain and the windshield fogged up on the outside repeatedly. Wipers had to be on to stop the moisture build up. Seemed like a odd issue. Anyone seen these issues or any suggestions?

Personally, I wouldn't get it. Sounds like too many issues from the getgo. May I suggest waiting for another one to come along? A good number of '14s and '15s are showing up on the market.

+1. I'd pass unless you get a ~reeally~ good deal. Even then I'd think twice...

+2. Why sort out someone else's problems. The '14 is off warranty or coming off soon, so you'd be on your own on this one.

Don't get stuck fixing broken down 100K car out of warranty. Not unless you get it for a pennies on a dollar.
