Yes, the price is about 1k too hight at the dealer. In NY the certified with warranty will go for about 15.5k-16.5k. But I dont think that that warranty is worth the money since it is applicable to only that dealer (usually). The third party warranty is usually costs 2k and much more transferable. As for reliability, bring your OBDII code reader with you and test it. Check the trip computer for gaz milege, it should be in 20-22 range, if you are in urban area, higher if not. If lower, you might be in for the dreaded Throtle control module repair.
Also, when test driving hit the brakes at different speeds and listen for the ticking/clicking sound, if that is present then you might be in for future ABS module repair. Also check the trim, if it is not in working order it is annoying and costly to repair due to lack of after-market suppliers.
