Im thinking about buying this 99 ssei. It has 216k miles. Engine and trans runs good. It needs brake work and the blower motor isnt working. Is that too much for this car ? Is it worth putting money into it if it needs a major repair ?

If it's not rusty, go for it as long as there aren't any serious issues and you can do the work yourself.

Like any car, it depends on what he means by "Needs some work". If it's simple things like rotors/pads, wires/plugs, minor suspension issues, etc. then it's worth $800 granted it's not rusted out to the frame.
If you decide to at least look at, take a long gander at the subframe bushings.
