Same car pretty much. Not like ones a Tip and the other is a PDK, that would then make a difference.

07, you get to drive the car 1 1/2 years longer to get the same miles on averag. So you can drive it all the time for the next year or so and just be getting to the miles of the 08. At that point trade it in on a PDK w/ low miles.

24 vs 6 is too big a difference to ignore, all things the same . The 6k miles car is surely the only choice here. I paid a large premium 2 years ago for a lower mileage car and today I am still glad I did.

How many miles per year to you expect to put on?

Any gains with an 08 vs. and 07 have been more than negated with a differential of 18K miles. Agree with the peanut gallery: 2007.

Assume everything else is equal (price, PPI, DME report, options, color, etc, etc.).
Unless you drive insane miles, no question. 07.

May I ask which one you were looking at? Might coincidentally be the same one I was considering.
