I want to get a car that's used from one dealership checked out at the manufacturer dealership ( i.e its a Honda at a Toyota dealership, get it inspected at a Honda dealership )
Do I need to call up ahead? What to say, ask, do, etc
Dealership ?

tell the dealer that you want to take it to your mechanic to check it out. thats what i did when i got my maxima, they agreed and went with me. i'm sure they will allow you to do that.

^^ that was a hypothetical situation
It's honestly a Subaru that's at a Mercedes Benz dealership...

Ask them straight up that you want to get it inspected. I think you'll pay 75-90 bucks for an inspection at the Honda place. If the dealership refuses, I say walk away from the deal.
There are simple things you can do as well. I've heard that its a good idea to look at the oil cap and look for browning. Apparently this can happen if the car is run hard on low oil. My old car had it - and yes it was abused (but still ran well till the torque converter died).
oh i know said car was raced in the autocross - it was the Atlanta SCCA Champion for awhile

I hope you get the Scooby!!!!
Just make sure you get the carfax ... Make sure it wasn't in a serious car accident and make sure it has been taken care of well!
