87 CRX repair Question

[rgrinny17]

im looking into buying a 87 crx si (197K miles on it, runs) off my buddy and there are 2 main problems with the car.

1. the front strut is broken and needs replaced
2. he says the manual transmission is difficult to shift

my question is are these repairs going to be expensive? is this a car i should even consider buying? any help/feedback would be appreciated.

im not giving advice but i just traded my 92 thunderbird for a 1990 crx hf with 195000 mile, the engine burns oil like somthin fierce, i think the piston rings are shot, but there is everything you can think of wrong with it but it still gets great gas milage and runs fine im about to put a d16z6 in it and turbo it. but the crx is scrap, compared to the thunderbird i traded but it hasnt let me down yet hondas can take some shit im tellin ya
