Question Is 102,000 miles to many to buy a used GSR?

I am looking for a '94 - '01 GSR to buy and I tell ya, try looking for a used one in the spring. Everytime I find one, they were already sold within one day they were posted for sale. Anyway, I found one that looks pretty decent. 1994, body kit, and a few other mods, it was in a "slight" 5 mph parking lot accident and has 102,000 miles on it. Guy is asking around $6,850. I have heard from many people that Integra's are very dependable, but I'm kinda nervous about buying a car with this mileage (I was hoping for around 70,000-90,000 miles. Just wondering if any of you would buy a GSR with this mileage. I'm still planning on putting about $9,000 in modifications into it. I'll be happy if I get 5-6 years out of it with no major repairs. Also, any main things I should look for or have it inspected because of the accident it was in? Thanks much
Tim

...

I have a 94 integ gs-r with 108,xxx and it runs perfect, but the only way to really tell is to test drive it, and see if it rides nice, ive seen a gs-r with 50k miles run worse than mine, so it depends on the car, not the miles, just take it to a mechanic as well and have them do an inspection of the cluth, tranny, engine and you should be fine if no problems

Do a leak down. If that tuns out fine, the motor is probably okay.

When you drive it, be especially careful to see if the clutch is worn or not and make sure the synchros are working properly. Check for leaks around the major seals (head gasket, oil pan, etc.).

Good luck with your project.
