Noisy rear ends. Could be a sign of it breaking soon.
Transmission issues. Shifting, reverse, etc. My M6 I just bought can't bang gears, period. It's worn.
Leaky T-tops.
Leaky rear end.
Tire tread/condition. Will give you an idea of how it was driven and maintained.
Cracked dashes and door panels are common.
Rear main seal leaks.

Check if it has cats if you need to pass emissions also, don't assume it will.

I'll just chime in to say that list is perfect. There are more general things, like make sure all the buttons work (power windows, wipers, hatch release, etc.). King's list nails what to look for mechanically though.

im old school but i always look at and smell the oil, tranny fluid (i know u said m6) coolant, if they have changed recently covers up, but smell of burnt tranny fluid, fuel in oil, rusty coolant are indicators as well, and x2 on kings list

And I will add, only because the OP is new here, check the door sticker for the RPO code WS6 to be sure you are not buying a clone.

I'm sure you probably know that.
