IS is a pretty solid car, check for all the normal things you would check for, ticks, rattles, leaks. 6800 is a good price assuming the rest of the car is on point. ABS distributor? whats he mean by that?

Check to see if the 90k maintenance has been done. So, ask if the timing belt and water pump were changed recently. If it hasn't, that's a $1600 job to get done at a dealer, or much less if you're willing to do it yourself.
