I know, I know, please don't hate.

I have Googled, used the search function, scanned the stickies, etc. I can find tons of info regarding bad or less than stellar compression, but what would be considered good or great compression? Does the rating scale stop at 10.0? If so, a factory new motor would/should have........what?

The reason I ask is because on thursday, I am looking at an '07 with 30k miles. Original owner, but has never had a compression test. He is happily willing to. I am going to look at the car first just to be sure it is in condition that I will accept. Should it be a car I want, he will take it to his local dealer to have the compression checked before we strike a deal. More than fair to me.

I don't want adequate or acceptable, I'd rather be on the side of excellent.

I appreciate it guys (and girls?) big time.

Q: what makes your compression issue so unique that it requires posting another thread to clog up the system rather than just adding it to the end of one of the other bazillion threads on the same subject?

A: absolutely nothing
