As dlayman states maintenance records are important. Consumer reports has good reliability data I have found to be quite accurate and is what I will use before my next vehicle purchase. Throttling it hard in first gear then quickly letting off the gas will produce a puff of blue smoke if the engine has significant issues (burning oil). A friend needs to watch this from the street as you pass by. With a bright light check all engine and transmission areas for signs of leaks. Check connection points of body panels, if differences in paint are noted it has likely been in a wreak.
