The Auto-dimming mirror works ok, anything is better than a truck’s low-beam hitting the low sports car rear view mirror, and the auto-dimming mirror is actually a little wider too so you can see more.
Your price is good. It’s basically dealer cost. I’ve seen better (couple hundreds), I’ve seen worse (thousands).

thanks!!
I've been toying with the tS but just can't seem to figure the cost. I mean one thing I like about the BRZ is the cost (I think the performance package at $1200 is a steal) but then when I see the tS is what another $4000 past that. Also I actively hate the large wing on the tS and would likely need to replace it with a normal spoiler, that I don't seem like it's worth the cost. I believe (can't find it now) but that I saw a tS for sale like $32,800 and this car I'm looking at is $28,800 so looking at $4000 more for the tS not sure.
Since I'm here, just want to get some reassurance about the BRZ.
I drove two (one a used 2015 and one a new 2017) couldn't really feel the difference between the shorter gearing and 5 more HP. But heck rather have both in the 2017-18. But the point was that I was on a test drive so really didn't get to drive it like I would. I don't abuse the test cars at all, but really with these cars they should be taking the whip (I believe once they are broken in).
But so I owned a S2000 (had removable hardtop) so that is the bogie that I'm trying to replace. I also had a V8 M3 and found that was fantastic in it's own right except the weight issue an extra 800 lbs really is noticeable. Also the M3 was wicked fast but that kind of took the fun away, now it was fun at stop lights that's something I'll miss. But most other ways it was just too fast that I felt like that I was keeping down only driving 50% power so that I was not really getting to drive it like I stole it.
I feel like the BRZ would be a great substitute for the S2000 which I prefer the coupe over the convertible and I can't fit in the MX5 anyway.
