Default s2k for 6500

Hey guys my name is chris im 20 years old and live in miami florida. im new to the s2k game but I have been in the honda game for quite some time now I've had my fair share of Civics, Del sols, and Integras lol. This is going to be my first s2k and I hope its as great as everyone says it is. I actually won the car on ebay for a really good price I couldn't let this deal pass me by. anyways here are some pics of the car.

P.S. I picked this baby up for only 6500! Btw the car has 122XXX miles on it is there anything i should know or do Im not very familiar with the F-series motor
as far as high mileage how do they do? I leave next weekend to pick the car up. I plan on checking the compression when I finally get to the car but is there anything else i should look for?

I will, but everyone has to start somewhere with a RWD vehicle. Thanks for the heads up!

That's pretty clean/good looking S for $6500!

Change all the fluids to be safe, unless you have documentation of the last change. Oil/Transmission/Differential for sure, and coolant probably wouldn't hurt.

thanks lol and my first plan is to get an alarm to prevent thieves from stealing my seats, shift knob, and steering wheel or the car! lol as far as future plans go im not to sure on what route im going to take. but one thing that does scare me a little is the high mileage and hearing about the cracked retainers from over reving the car. "/ but it looks like the car was very well maintained and its all stock so thats a plus too. im just a little worried about the cracked retainers and cylinder #4.
