Should I buy this 92x Aero?

Hi all. Recently came across a silver 2005 92x aero MT with 133xxx miles for sale. Asking price is $6000 although that number is probably negotiable since its for sale by a used car dealer. Has heated cloth seats, no moonroof. Seller doesn't have any service records or information about the car. I should be getting a carfax soon. Windshield needs to be replaced due to a big crack. Paint is ok, not great, and one of the mirrors seems to be loose/glued on. Car runs and drives well.

Does this sound like a good deal? Besides replacing the windshield, what other maintenance (preventative or otherwise) should be done on this car after buying to get it running reliably. Im eventually going to have to do a cross country road trip in it if I buy. Ive really wanted a 92x for a while so im tempted...

Figure out if the timing belt has been changed.  If it shows no service records indicating then I would do that first, just to be safe.

Seems high for me. Mine was for sale for 6.9 (in December) with 104k, lots of service records, near perfect paint except for rear bumper, cloth heated seats and no windshield issues or any others.

Mine also had timing belt done and a lot of other routine maintenance done early. It's a 2 owner not including me.
