You should be fine. My 2000 has just crossed the 250K threshold and she runs like a champ. If the car has been well maintained, it has a lot of life left in it.

 

You should get a used car inspection before buying any used car. Try to find an independent shop that has a good reputation and specializes in Hondas or foreign cars. They might find some stuff that will need repaired so you aren't surprised. You could negotiate a bit with the seller.

Definitely find out when and how many miles since the last time they changed the timing belt.

There are some good Youtube videos on buying used cars by ericthecarguy and schrodinger's box that you should watch.

Not sure if you do your own car work. If you don't, then repairing a 25 year old vehicle with 300K miles can get expensive.

 

I had a '93 and now a '92, 5-spd tranny both.

Current '92 has 263,000 miles and was well maintained with oil changes every 4000 by prior owner ( I purchased at 203,000). 1st two years I put zero $ into repairs - 'twas beautiful. Mechanics: My '92 car uses oil moderately and I just accept that; causes no driveability problems, no visible smoke. Redone AC - for the new refrigerant - is ice cold and the heater has drawn praises from riders in the cold months.

Note, if you get a wet trunk when it rains hard, look to the seals around the tail lights. This was true for both of my 92, 93 year cars.

Those are good Accord years, in my view - cars superior to those of the '94 - '97 years, IMHO.
