Default Potential new STS buyer

I'm looking at a 2005 STS with GM certified pre-owned.
It's a "base" V8, no magneride, or other options, but should suit me OK, and it's at an excellent price, considering the CPO warranty.

Anything I should especially look out for? Obviously has clean title, and service history for the CPO. It is an off-lease vehicle with 31k miles.

What kind of gas mileage do most people see with the V8 STS?

Thanks,
The one I'm looking at has the base 1SE package..
Does anyone know if this includes

Keyless Go and/or remote start?

Was that standard on all STS or one of the higher packages?
