Default What should I look for when buying a RSX base automatic?

My wife is interested in a '02-'04 base automatic and I want to know what to look for when buying used. Are there any major downfalls with these cars??

I hope we get 170k miles out of this Acura like we did her '98 CL. We bought this yesterday.

Well the old Civics and Accords would run reliably forever. I could have kept the CL for a lot longer but it was starting to have reliability issues.

My CRX has 192k miles but the motor has been swapped.
