I can't say a lot. How many miles are on it for one thing (always a key factor)? Another is that it is an sc1 meaning sohc so its a little weak if you are power hungry but you probably aren't. Drive it around for a good 20-30 min if you can. Do normal driving and put a little punch in it, see how it runs. Do a few stops, make sure the brakes are all right. turn the wheel fully in both directions. look at the alignment. test all the electric stuff (a/c, lights, mirrors, locks, wipers, and such). Look under the hood before and after the drive. look under the hood while running and check for leaks. it is difficult to buy a used car cuz it is used, there could be anything wrong with it so you have to look at EVERYTHING. Get a carfax report too. cost around 20 bucks or something but is very useful. if you do get it, change oil EVERY 3000 miles with regular oil. I changed my oil every 4000 when i used synthetic (and i'll probably get a lot of crap for saying that) but that is just me and i changed my oil every 3000 when i switched to high mile stuff. change the ect with the brass one if it hasn't, it will prevent future issues down the road. can't think of anything else, i guess i did say a lot.
