Usual stuff really, look at as many as you can and get a feel for whats available then you will be able to spot the good ones. For your money if you find a genuine fsh car then you are off to a good start as there may not be too many at the price.

I would not have thought that you would need to worry too much about tyre wear on an NA as they put power down quite smoothly and if you do drive it like you say you will the tyres will last. The biggest issue will be getting used to rear wheel drive as its very different to fwd.

Best of luck with the search.
