Default Help me decide

I'm looking at getting a 95 Acura Integra GSR 4dr w/ a 5speed and leather seats for $3,500. I think i can talk the guy lower. Oh ya it has 140K. the big thing is that it was in a front end accident and has a previously salvaged title. It's like 90 miles away and i might go this weekend to look at it with my friends dad who is a mechanic the paint is hunter green and looks pretty good and this is going to be my first car and ownly car i will have for a while.

just when you drive it see if there is any vibration or pull in the steering wheel. if so i would ask if it is from the front end damagethen try to talk him down from there

take a magnent and you'll be able to figure out if it has any major body work done(ie...bondo and such), or if it had the panels replaced. Use a thin towel behind the magnent as not to scratch the paint.

tricks of the trade also look for obvious signs like paint overspray, hammered sports... etc, etc..
