Default buying a used hyrbid?

i found a deal on a civic hatch wit a b18c1. The asking price is 4900 and i'm wondering if there is something wrong with the car or the owner justs wants to get rid of it.

what's year is the hatch. Thats a really good price. I would jump on it if it is legit (papers for engine) . Do a compression test. If not, bring it to a shop that will inspect it for you. Check with carfax on the car's history. Believe me, I have spent that much just for the engine and mods...

The problem with buying a car modded is you know that even though the car might have been well cared for, its most certainly was driven hard at some point.
