Is this car worth a look?

[Ace Strom]

Hi guys,
As you can tell im new here. If this isnt in the right place feel free to move it. I came across this car on my local craigslist and since i dont know a whole lot about mazdas i figured id ask you guys what should i expect mileage life wise on this, any soon up coming maintenance, and generally is it worth going to look at or should I pass.
heres the link. Thanks in advance

personally I wouldnt buy a car with over 60K miles on it. Unless you get pretty lucky that car will start causing problems. Other than the miles it looks in good shape from the picture. 8.5 K doesn't sound bad but its not a great price in my books for something with 100k miles on it. Both my parents cars (lexus and benz) have been to the dealership for tranny work a couple times. Then again my uncles toyota celica is still chuggin on the stock clutch at 220K miles. HAWT DAMN! the thing wont die.

I'm pretty much asking for personal experience, like when things go bad, what to look for what to expect. you know?
