Buying a '99 Tomorrow...

Going to a dealer to check it out and buy it if it looks good. 1999 SE 5-speed, 73K miles, 1 owner. Is there anything I should look out for? I know the clutch will probably need replacing soon, as well as the O2 sensor and coil packs. Anything specifically to check? I guess this is more a general used-car buying question. Thanks in advance.
