Actually, I think you should be paying at least $20K for it. In fact, I'm insulted that you are paying less. No, I'm not biased just because mine has over 75K.
Kidding aside, you have nothing to worry about. The car is prety bulletproof is driven sanely.

Make sure you do the throw-out bearing test on it. Start it, open the door, shifter in Neutral and depress the clutch. You should NOT hear any whirring sounds from underneath.

If you work at an Acura dealer, just have one of the service techs to check it out before you buy it. They work on them all the time, so they could give it a good going over and tell whats up. They are great cars if they are taken care of.

Thats a STEAL! I would get it just have it checked by a MECHANIC. DAMN THATS A SUPER DEAL! makes me feel like an ass for paying 21k for one with 10k miles on it.
