Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

0 original-poster resolution reports. Counts can overlap; they are not unique people or a success rate.
0 discussions have direct query context; 0 report a fix in that context. Other evidence may inherit the discussion’s subject.
Leading evidence: 'Set eyes' (no explicit attributable resolution; this is a reported action or suggestion). Across 1 matching discussions, The most frequently discussed action is 'Set eyes' (1 discussions). For that action, 0 discussions report a resolution and 0 report an unsuccessful attempt. No action has an explicit, attributable resolution report under the current rules. These are forum reports and suggestions, not a confirmed diagnosis.
Source reports, not a diagnosis or a success probability. Counts refer to discussions and can overlap.
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

I have set my eyes on these 2. Not sure whether I want the lower milage C2 or the higher milage C4. Plus the C4's interior and exterior is more worn. And the C4 will end up costing me more even with higher milage (based on the asking price).
Have looked at both (neither is perfect cosmetically) not done a ppi yet on either but want to start first with a ppi on the one I like more.
What would you choose?
Thanks
I am leaning towards it as well. I have a feeling that a c4 owner is flexible on price but those miles hmm. Not sure if the awd is worth all those miles.
Thanks friends. On to ppi, let's see what that says and then hopefully can get this down by a little bit. Can't wait to get the car. My first manual.
And I have a 2015 wrx for snow and rain so awd is not a must.
While it's convenient the C2 pics exclude the main wear point (driver left side), the C2 has my vote for car quality. Both are 99s so it's really about the ownership/maintenance trail, interior quality and AWD or no.
Such a good price for that quality a C2! GL with your choice
fwiw I'm biased towards blue normally. The red car just seems better overall
I'll probably get stoned for saying this, but I wanted a C2 because I love the relationship you make with the car when it comes to keeping the rear end in the rear.
I saw the car today. The left is ok. It is one of the pics I posted. Not great quality pic. The guy had the car for 8 years and bought it from first owner has records (at least his). I will do carfax tomorrow.
As biased as I am in favour of Ocean Blue C4s, the C2 definitely seems like a better deal.
FWIW - my C4 came with less than half the miles and was a couple of thousand cheaper than the one in New York. Those are some handsome wheels though, I might have to get a set.
Maybe like 16-16.5k? It doesn't really represent a better value than the C2 even then, but if you care about AWD or prefer the colour scheme (don't tell KC), then maybe that would tip the balance.
FYI, the 4 spoke steering wheel indicates earlier build and is generally more desirable. A lot of times they are '98s that weren't brought to the states until '99.
They shall be burned, but how will I make sure that leather does not shrivel on me. I will drive this thing a lot and my tuhas will rub the **** out of the driver seat.
