My GF bought an Impreza from Heuberger. About 2 weeks before we went out to pick up the car, the hail storm of May 2014 damaged virtually every panel on her car.
Insurance took care of it and there were zero issues.
If you buy a car that was repaired, you are protected against all of the issues you have raised regarding repair, paint, etc. The stock paint warranty, as robust as it seems, is only as good as "normal road wear" is defined. Any BRZ/FRS owner can tell you how much this is BS when it comes to chips in the front bumper.
As a side note, I did recall seeing a BRZ on the showroom floor at Heuberger that was half repaired from the hail as a way of showcasing what PDR can do for a severely damaged car. Not sure if this was the same car you are looking at but if it is, it's repaired as flawless as it can be.
