I may do that, but it's really just my choice right now, and i cannot seem to make up my mind.

Heads = 2003. Tails = 2004.

I have a touring now.

I'll tell you what I'd do if I were buying again. I'd go with enthusiast model. Touring bose sucks big time and not worth it. Leather seats are good... But for money saved you can install good sport seats if you want and your own audio. Or just live with stock one which is not that bad I've heard. I personally 'd get seats and don't worry about audio. I don't use my car to play music, I drive it hard.

So the main idea it's cheaper to go with lower model and use saved money to do exact upgrades you want, not that some deaf engeneer thought for you (to put that Blose in Z one have to be legally deaf).

As for new vs. used... With any car as soon as you take it out of dealership you loose some big % of value. But buying new you know nobody abused your car... so you can do proper break-in... and than that new car smell...

Yeah those are my pros and cons. I'm just having a lot of trouble figuring out the better path. I have never been indecisive, but I just cannot make this decision.

And, if new, don't buy for MSRP. Search the internet and call different dealerships in different cities. Chicago dealerships usually goes below MSRP. Two of my friends bought there. And back trip is a perfect way to break-in the car.

I have knocked them down from $35,000 to $31,000 for a brand new one (w/out tax). I am still trying to decide, and i pretty much want this done by tonight. I feel sick
