HELP With Decision (PLEASE)

[nfpgasmask]

It all depends on how bad you want the color. If it was me, choosing between a silver with lower miles and an ebony with higher miles, but both appeared to be in excellent, well maintained shape, I would go with the ebony. But, there is a lot to be said for less miles. You might consider searching around a little more, if you have the time. I'm sure you could find a perfect IronMan with lower miles....

I have a decision to make that I hope I can get some opinions on quickly. I have found two Vx's and don't know which way to go.

The first is a silver 2001 with about 45k miles in excellent shape
The second is a 2000 Ironman with about 85k miles in good to excellent shape

The Ironman is about $750 more than the silver. I have always liked the Ironman edition but I'm a little reluctant because of the miles. Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!

I failed to mention these are both at Dealerships so I have no idea who previously owned them.

Lower Miles, A year newer, better condition and cheaper...The 01

It seems fairly obvious that the silver is 1:In better shape, 2:Costs less, 3:Has almost half the miles, 4:Is a year younger. Unless you absolutely have to have red/orange seats, you can buy a vinyl ironman sticker at most sign shops for real cheap, and a roof rack on here for around $400-$450 or so. To me the wear and tear you are going to save alone would be worth it to go with the silver, considering parts are not A:cheap, and B:readily available in general. With a vehicle this rare, you need all the help you can get. Another thing to consider from the aesthetic side is that with a grey/black interior, it matches the outside of a silver a lot better. I am fine with my reddish orange interior, but some people really aren't too fond of the more "sporty" look.

Be sure to:
Check those windows, examine the hood insert for cracks, check the radio and cd player (!), check heat, air and automatic temp control, this might sound strange but check the oil level (someone here almost bought a VX that had dry dipstick from a dealer). Oh, and carfax to see if there is any recorded accidents.

... silver

silver... all other things being equal.
