ok ex questions

I've found a 97 Honda Civic EX, I think I'll buy it(see it pays to hold off) but here's the thing, obviously someone had already started modifing it, it's got a cold air intake on it, msd ignition, some of the interior is painted, chrome rims, etc... because of this the dealer(small dealer) is selling it cheap b/c he figures no one will want to buy it, about 2 to 3 thousand below, I'm gonna get it checked out(it has almost 80000 miles on it already) but if I do get this, and I'm not used to working on Honda's, how hard is mantience if it's needed? Ok I know you're tired of helping me shop for now but I'm trying to get into the flow of things. Thanks
