The thing to watch out for is to see how well the trans shifts and to see if it slips. There was one with about 50K miles on it that I had looked at not too long ago that was in a thread here. The original owner ended up putting in a new transmission in the car and this was a car that was driven regularly but not long enough. Also the brake calipers had seized up on that car as well . They're relatively inexpensive to fix. Also make sure the car does not overheat. The thermostat may be stuck from sitting, a cheap fix there.
