Superformance builds a great product. As long as this car was well maintained and never "bent," it should be a safe bet.
Personally I wouldn't be worried about 12K miles on a 2001 model; this is about average from what I've seen and it's not always good for a car to sit too much. The asking price is about average for a 2001 as well.
Some things to look for: after 11 years those Goodyear GTIIs are probably hard as rock and need replacing. You should also ensure the rear shock tower mounts have been replaced with Cobra Valley R/T mounts or similar. Intake gaskets on those Windsor motors often leak coolant, so check that too. A 2001 SPF would've come fully equipped with soft top, side curtains and tonneau cover so make sure those are still there and in good nick.
Go see the car if you can and take it for a test spin. Make sure the car "fits" you.
Good luck.
