1996 900S

I'm looking to buy a '96 900s 2-door automatic. The price that I've agreed to consider is $5900 USD. The car is clean, has 80K miles and runs well. At approx. 75K, it got a new timing belt and has new tires with less than 10K on them. The owner is only the second one to own the car, is a straight-shooter and assures me he has had no major problems with it. All of this being said, the issues of concern to me are:
-While the car runs well, the engine is a little whiny. It doesn't sound like a problem, it just makes a high pitched sort of hum.
-At 80K, I am wondering if the brakes and exhaust will need to be replaced sometime soon. Brakes feel good, nice and tight, however.
-There are some small dents on the hood (about 1/8 in. diameter) that appear to be rock damage and are slightly rusted out.
-The antenna does not fully retract.
Any advice on the above issues would be greatly appreciated as would any assesments of the price of the car. Thanks.
