Yeah def get the one with red interior and Warranty. If you end up getting sick of the red im sure someone on here would be more then willing to swap seats and, doors.

CPO for the win, if you don't plan on modding it.

CPO i dont think is that significant given that these cars are extremely reliable
12k mile is 1 years driving.. also not significant
i would check for signs of care, e.g. seat bolster wear, paint quality, if there are scratches under front lip, etc
at this stage, you are buying the previous owner, more than buying the car itself

perhaps its worth it to do a compression test, but unless 1 was beat ragged im unsure whether there can be a big variance between the 2 motors

Bring a paint (detailer) guy to look at it. The pro's say black paint looks like hell out of the factory compared to what they can do with it in a few hours. Check out vanity detailing in Jacksonville (since I'm pretty sure I saw your post in the jax forum), see if you can get him to the dealership to get his opinion on the paint and if he can fix it. Then make the dealership pay him for the fix. PM for a number or post up in the Jacksonville forum.

edit: Also, don't pay attention to miles to much living where we do, I bought mine with 15k less then 7 months ago and I'm at 31k already.
