Go for the 04 with 57K miles. Sounds like a great deal.

04 is a better deal. 81k sound a bit high.

BUT.. personnaly I prefear stick tranny. If you are searching for a Black with stick the 06 could be THE ONE.

The '04 is a Limited and the '06 is a base model. Which means the '04 has a better stereo as well, plus leather/heated seats (if they still work lol)

The 04 has that all important and rare self darkening mirror! I kinda wish I had held out for the 6 speed. Both sound like good deals to me.

If you like a stick, go with the '06. Otherwise, I would agree that the 04 is a better deal.

Base '06 vrs 04 limited with fewer miles?? comeon the cars are essentialy the same year to year. 81k is when fan motors and little annoying lights start vexing your driving fun.

Go for the '04, enjoy the stereo and the heated sets. NADA values aside.

If the year of MFG bothers your ego, remember only the purists can tell your driving an old '04 piece. And most would complement you for it.


roadster with a stick

Franc says buy the auto, that's a new one.
Black shows every speck of dirt, I know too well.
Buy the auto. You'll love the mirror, the heated seats (if they work) and less washing.
