Thanks guys for the input here it is:
I agree!
1. Consultant/Broker
2. I have two Cessna Service Center Supervisors who worked on transient and pre-purchase inspections on Xs, who have great insight. Our mechanic was a line service tech for 8+ years who knows the "actual time" for inspections/checks vs. the "billable hour" bul-----.
3. I agree the DOC 11 is huge and the 18.
As for the airframe, even early serial #s are good as long as the big SBs are accomplished and most of the rest with avionics upgrades 5+ for the primus.
Another area to look for VIIPILOT is the aircraft being on the MSG program previous to purchase. Save a lot of money on a much improved progressive maintenance program vs. the basic DOC schedule.

Split bus and aileron ratio are two major changes to newer CX's. If yours was a Cessna show piece, I'm sure it has this.
Ask them to put winglets on it, and install Primus Elite displays - approach plates and XM wx right in front of you!
