I'm about to buy Husky Weatherbeater liners (front and rear) for my 2014. Not sure whether to get black or tan to go with the Medium Light Stone interior. Definitely need to get something because there's a rambunctious kid who cares not for the cleanliness of the car's interior, and winters in the north east are full of slush...

Yeah, the 2014 75k mile SEL wasn't the best deal, but I was really angling to not go to a dealership and a car would be very convenient at the moment. I'd love to get Sync 3 with CarPlay and Android Auto, but I'm trying to stay on budget. The car will get a bit of use now, but I'm not sure how many miles we'll add to it (aside from holidays) when coronavirus settles down and we can start using public transport again. Ideally, I'd like a more modern and up-to-date version of the Mazda 5. Something with more than 5 seats so when things get back to normal we can transport the family and one or two non-car-owning family friends. Getting a Odyssey/Sienna/Sedona/Pacifica for that use case seems a bit excessive, and I'm dead set against getting an SUV.

I'm looking at a 2014 C-Max Hybrid SEL. It has about 74k miles on the clock, and comes with a reversing camera, and convenience kit. It's $12k including taxes and registration. I live in NJ right near NYC and don't current have a car. Because of Covid-19, I'm going to buy to buy through Carvana. Normally, I probably wouldn't go down the online route, but I have a newborn and am living with my elderly mother. So I might just eat the extra cost and the inability to haggle. Given I can't test drive the car beforehand, but have a 7 day return period and 100 day warranty, what should I look out for? Also, is anyone willing to dissuade me from the purchase...
