Default 94 ls, is 133k too many miles?

i only have about 5k for a first car and i found a 94 ls w/133k miles for around 4500. im prolly only gonna put about 50k more miles on it. i dont know a whole lot about integras so i was just lookin for some input on the mileage.

taht car will go for another 100k miles as long as it has been well kept up with. My brotehr has a 96 ls with over 220 miles, still as strong as when we bought it 6 years ago. Just keep the maintenance up, and it will last.

My second generation is about to hit 190,000 miles and running mid 15's, I havn't really had any major problems at all with it, and I drive it hard almost every day!

You can probably knock off $500 that sticker, make sure to go thru all inspections and checks for a clean bill of health.

Well, if you wanna know what the average 1994 car has, here's how you do it. On the average...people usually drive about 15K per year, so for every year old your car is...in your case 10, you add 15K...so that would be 15,010, so technically, you're under what the average is. After saying all that, I say this...you're doing fine and like these other guys have said, keep up the maintenance and you'll last a long time.

thanks guys, thats pretty much what i was thinkin. but i went to test drive it today and everything seems alright mechanically but the dumbass who owned it before tried doin some gay sh*t to the interior by painting it silver and black but left the dash, steering wheel, and e-brake brown. looks pretty horrible so i was wondering if any of you had custom painted ur interior and knew how much that runs for... that would help in deciding how much to pay for the car

you can piece together a new interior for relatively low cost and then you can choose black or tan.... or you can try to strip the stuff.... my friend used dye to turn his interior from tan to black and had nothing but regrets... he ended up getting it all recovered with tweed cuz his car is a 2001 and he couldnt find replacements at any local salvage yards (show cars )
