no but ive worked at a few car dealerships and some cars come with the lights on, the cars on shipment trucks have the keys in them, so if a car gets stolen they can track it down

This is a production car or some kind of press car? A prototype could very well have random error codes from control modules or something.

They say in the description that the car hasn't had it's PDI (Pre-Delivery Inspection), so it hasn't had the ECU "set" by the technician yet. Many cars like Porsches, Audis and BMWs all have check engine lights on, along with disabled cruise control, speed limiters, rpm limiters, etc.
