only problem with the mr is that its about almost 6 hrs away.....

Meh, not all that far. Mine was 2k miles away.....but I had it shipped

Seriously though, I would personally still vote for the MR simply based on mileage and presumably less mods. I understood trying to find exactly what I wanted meant I might be hopping on a plane to go get it, but I know some people don't want one that bad. Before I found my deal in CA, I was hoping to fly to TX and drive about 12 hrs home. Evos are pretty few and far between in my neck of the woods.

It's your decision though, so decide what's most important to you and choose accordingly.

that price is high for the miles....a realistic price is around 22ish. b/c if you paid 26 for that then you can get a brand new IX for 30ish.

Dealers always mark the cars way up so they can get the price they really want. Oh, they'd love to get the asking price, but it cost them money to have a car sitting on the lot for extended periods of time. Turn around is key.

My dad sold his IX with ~10,000 miles for $26,000 to a member of the forum. It was a regular GSR totally stock, except for window tint.

an extra 7k miles (of being abused?) for only $500? there should be no question there...if you're gonna choose between the MR's, shouldnt be that hard of a choice. call up owner b and tell them you want to drive the car home for 25.5k...see what they say. no? at least try to beat option c's price. any mods on the two MR's?
