buying a used TSX

I am new to acuras and I really like the TSX and TL. I am meeting up with a guy I met on Craigslist to check out a TSX tomorrow. What should I look for in the car to know its in good condition?

thanks

We are actually selling my wife's 06 TSX and myself as the seller I am disclosing as much info as possible. Such as Autocheck report, maintenance history, and also this is a certified TSX with a good amount of warranty available. I would request this as a minimum and check out kbb.com on the value of it.

good advice: in addition-have the car checked out by either a acura dealer or a mechanic you trust. Find out if they are the original owner or how many others owned it. I have all the service done on my 06 tsx by a acura dealer that I trust (have no knowledge or desire to DYI) I have the maintenance book filled out and stamped each time. I also keep all the receipts.

What is year, mileage or type of TSX? (Example: 05 6MT, w/ Navi, 65,000 miles, one owner). This would be helpful for folks to let you know what problems they had with each model year of the TSX.
