2002 Subaru Legacy carfax report--how does it look

The only thing that worries me on this report is that fuel system was checked twice before the car was sold. Otherwise it looks almost too good to be true for the money(6000$ and 90K miles). It's going to be my first car so I'm hoping to buy something decent. Would someone please kindly take a look at below carfax report and see if they can spot any problems. Thank you very much

Dunno, that doesn't seem to be a GOOD price, just average. And, that's just CarFax, no maint records? What about the rest of the stuff? Have you seen or driven it?

That model year and motor had some very bad problems with head gaskets blowing, which is a 2k - 3k repair. You need to read up on the issue and check for hydrocarbons in the coolant before putting in an offer. 90k miles is right about the time the gasket will go too.
