you want to know if there is going to be anything you need to replace or have fixed on the car like tires, a/c, muffler, etc..

i was helping a friend look for a 240sx, and we ran into alot of timing chain problems.

and any car that really rides fairly low (sports cars like the 240) check to see that the oil pan isnt cracked or exhaust bent from bottoming out, and while your down there check for any general leaks...

if it feels iffy in any way, it probably is
