driving hard

If you are looking at buying a car and you are getting a distinct feeling like the guy who is selling it drives the car pretty hard, such as revving it a lot unnecessarily, speeding frequently, and as a result braking frequently. Taking hard corners etc... How much of an effect will this have on the car?

if i thought the car had been aboused i wouldn't buy it. one of the mechanics i work with is liek that, if he was giving it away i wouldn't want it because i know how hard he runs his cars.
