Default Looking at buying an Intengra, what to look for?

Hey guys so im checking out an Integra ls right now that im pretty convinced im going to buy, i test drove it and it runs really nice. The interior looks brand new but the outside has some scuffs and scraps on the front bumper and rear. What should i look out for on these integras? how does this one look? Im thinking i might get them to come down to 4,000?

Any rust anywhere, under the wheel wells etc. How does the engine bay look? Clean? 30min test drive and see how it runs. Any funny smells? Does the motor sound good? Any ticking? See any leaks from the motor?

Look through the car thoroughly. As its what I would do. Check wires etc trunk id check everything lol literally. Maybe run a carfax for its history?

It has about a 2in long by 1in tall rust spot above one of the rear wheel wells. Is that anything to be concerned about? It runs very good, like I said the interior is mint. The rust is fixable I'd say.

If you plan on keeping the car for long id fix the rust. The car does look nice. Is it a clean title? 4.9k for 13x,xxx miles.. idk. It is coming from a dealership

that's pretty close to kelley blue book price, maybe even a little less.
guess it depends how desperate they are to sell it. no engine pics always irritates me.
