Need help, looking at FD tomorrow

Howdy I'm a NA FC owner that found a white FD near me that is not officially for sale yet but the owner is letting me go look at it tomorrow. I've been trying to look up what model this one is. Had tan leather seats, 1 oil cooler, no spoiler, white rims, no foglights, and it had a sunroof. Other than that the owner said he doesn't drive it but it still runs good. I know the FD's have cooling problems, are there any tips on checking for stuff while I'm looking at it? I am basically looking at a car I know very little about, I need some help.

heh it is too much for me right now, $18,000
74k miles, my mom wanted me to go look at it but she said it was too much after we found out the price. The only real thing that I noticed was that it idled around 1200rpm. the exterior is very good, the interior is the worst part. I tried to do the 'time the boost' in 3rd gear thing and it seemed correct. Boost around 2-3k then a drop then wham in about 4 seconds I'm around 100.



I took some pictures of it
