What do you think?

Sorry for creating another thread like this. Since I will at Chicago in two weeks I decided to take a look some TL-S anyway. What do guys think of this, I think its a little overpriced.

Both look clean and well kept. I would lean toward the one with lower mileage.

As for pricing, they are about right.

Lower mileage one. $400 for 10 000 miles less is a good trade off. Plus the NBP is slick!

I'd look into the history (carfax, etc) and see where they were from. If one was a southern car for most of its life, then I'd probably go for that one, it'll be in better shape all around. If not then yea, the 10k less one. Good luck!

In NY that does seem a bit overpriced for a car with that much mileage. I'm not sure how the prices are in Chicago. If they all hover around the range of that then it should be alright.

Pretty good prices for around here. For perspective, I paid $25,300 for mine, certified with 17k on it, and a buddy paid about 23,500 I think for his 6MT with 45k on it. Both were purchased about a year ago.

Price is right, lower miles is better... I paid $21.5k for mine in April.

I'd go for the lower mileage if you care about that. Mileage can be irrelevant depending on how well the car was taken care of.

I'd just go with the color you like most.
Prices seem pretty spot on.

Type S's are just rare, and they tend to stay a little pricey.

Both came out from lease
Not good
Both has 2 owner

NBP is from NJ
A lease car driven at NJ... not good

CBP both owner from Illinois... better

+ not fan of interior of NBP... not for Type-S

Check how transmission is...
Good luck

If they were identical in terms of being taken care of, I would say go for the one with lower miles. If 10k miles isn't a big deal to you and you like the other color better, go for that one.
