Yes.It's best to get a car under 100,000 to avoid mechanical problems.

That not that high but if you are always on the road it might be a little to high. And how much are you paying for this car? You should consider that and what condition the car is in.

asian cars like acura and honda which is the same brand but diff name, hold off to a good 250,000-400,000 range if taken care of, and not beating on it... and hopefully the past owner didnt beat on it... if you baught it from a teenager or someone who likes to go fast, dont expect to go more then around 20,000 more miles.... but if its taken care of driven not past 3000 rpm then it should be amazing you can deff double the milage on that without a problem...

depends on the price. im 17 and im buyin my first car this sunday too! im gettin a 1992 acura legendmy best friend has a 94 integra and its extremely reliable. it has 130k on it and its never ever had any problems whatsoever. 150,000 is kinda high, but like i said, depends on the price. if i were buyin that integra, id pay NO MORE THAN $2500. remember that acuras are hondas and hondas last up to 200,000+ miles easy. if you take care of the integra(routine maintainance + not drivin like a maniac), you could get the car up to 250,000 miles or maybe even 300,000.but the integras a great choice. its fun, safe, easy to drive, very reliable, and gets great gas mileage.if u want more information just go to edmunds.com. everyone i know always reads the reviews there before buyin a car

It is not too much for an Acura. The Acura integra is basically a Honda Civic. They are the same cars.The Honda Civic holds the title for the most reliable compact car in the world.

I would ask the owner about the maintenance history of the car. Generally, a car with proper maintenance will last a long time. However, being that it's an Acura/Honda, at 150k there's still quite a bit of life left. Of course that's assuming it's been taken cared of (fluids changed regularly, brakes, clean, etc...). Best way to find out is to see it for yourself. Drive it, listen to any weird sounds, and don't be afraid to ask any questions. Also, if you don't know what to look for, take a buddy that knows a few things.With 150k, the exterior wont be perfect. Expect that much.

Its not too bad for an Acura/Honda...but make sure that otherwise, the car is in good shape. You may want to look at lower mileage ones though.
