I have a 2012 SV and so far (hope I don't jinx myself) I haven't run into anything serious and I'm up to 37K miles. Hopefully the previous owner kept up with the maintenance. Try to find out if it's been more or less kept on the recommended maintenance schedule because depending on how it's been driven you should think about checking/changing the tranny fluid, brake fluid and the small stuff like the intake filter and cabin air filter.
Other than that, I'm not aware of any real pitfalls with a Pathy so long as you take proper care of it.
