Well, first of all, welcome to HS
 I think we'll need a little more info. Exactly how many miles? What condition is the body in? Are you willing to swap in a new engine?

well first of all look for worn balljoints and busted up motormounts (A/T only) other than that you should get the car.

I think that with 195k on the clock, you need to be aware that the engine has the potential to need replacement sometime in the near future. Other than that, inspect the obvious stuff (or take it somewhere to have it inspected) and you should be ok. Also, look up the blue book value (www.kbb.com) on it.

I have a 91 accord and I love it!
 4th gen accords just have that appeal to me. And BTW, I don't think 1500 is that much, I paid 2500 for mine but it did had lower miles, around 121, 000. |
