Default Questions about buying some ITRs

Well since Im thinking about buying a used ITR there are some few questions that I hhave come accross. the guy told me teh compression test which is 195-195-195-197 I was wondering if that is the normal comp. rate or what should it be. Do you think 90,000 miles is a lot? If the motor ever blows or goes dead, is it easy and cheap to rebuild it?

Compression numbers look good, that still tells very little about how da motor was kept over the years. Cost on the rebuild is unknown, to many factors to think about. My opinion is that it is not expensive.

P.S. Take the car to an Acura dealer, ask for "saftey check for purchase". let them decide if the car cool if your unsure. They will tell you all about it in terms of saftey, reliability and if it is in need of repair, it also makes then liable.
