buying an integra with high miles

I am talking about 100k or higher miles, not higher than 110,000 miles. Is it ok to buy an ls with this many miles? What about the gsr with this many miles? It'd be a manual. What goes wrong with high milage cars if anything, are these cars expensive to repair? Any advice appreciated, thanks.

100,000 miles is not high at all for an integra.

i just sold one with 220,000 miles on it and it was running very strong.

acura parts in general are kinda expensive but some of the things that break you can just replace them with an aftermarket counterpart that will provide additional performance (most aftermarket throttle bodies cost 1/3 as much as the part from acura). integras are really easy to work on, especially the 94-00 integras, so, labor costs (if you take it somewhere for work) will not be as high as some other cars.

gs-r's will have more wear and tear for the same miles. 1.) the original owner has most likely driven it harder 2.) normal driving rpm is higher than that of an LS (rpm range on gs-r is 0-8000 so average driving is about 3700rpm, when on an LS its like 3000)
