Check kbb.com for what they are worth. I would say from looking at them the 08 is
the better deal, but you wont know until you actually look at them in person, then
you can see the little things. Me personnally I would get my financing (if your not paying cash) pre approved before I looked at them, that way you know what the
total cost will be to you. Good luck. PS I would test ride the one I was after.

The 2008 hands down, less miles, newer, and a lot less crap to remove.

Thanks for the input, guess the only thing that bothers me about the orange one is put the exhaust on but doesn't mention anything of rejetting or anything like that. I'll ask him today.

And also how does that work with the title? Do I just go to his credit union and pay it off with him and they send me the title?
