i don't know what half this stuff is. i just want a reliable car that can get me from point a to b. i am looking to have a mechanic look at it.

biggest downside is 144k in a mileage. i know hondas can go up to 200k but how can i know that this one will? this is the only thing that is giving me second thoughts on getting this car, so i wanted a few second opinions.

guy was very honest (friend of a friend) - car was very well maintained and driven on highway 90% of the time (commuting to/from work 100 miles/day).

$5500 final before taxes.

pleaseeee share any more valuable car buying advice for this noob.
