Totally a gamble, with hard to calculate risk. You may do quite well for yourself with this purchase. Heck, brought up to great shape for 18k all-in is not bad. Just realize if the engine grenades you probably have no recourse (? aftermarket warranty). And if this happens After new suspension/coolant tank/MAF/AOS/battery/radiator relay/water pump/AC control/paint job then you have a heck of a nice roller that is not worth much until you put a new engine in it. If you can cover this bet and the odds look good to, then absolutely go for it.
Personally I'm leery of gambling when the odds are too fuzzy to calculate.
But it is a safe bet that if you actually like driving, you will Love the car, probably enough to do whatever it needs done!
