If those are OTD prices for the X, the people trading in must have gotten raped!! The X must have horrible resale. Let's hope they come out with the posh diesel powered XI. At least we may see an increase in value at that point.

I would get the stock one also.
I bought my 08 GG, SSS package, with UICP and turbo back, 16k miles for 25k from a private seller in september of last year.
It was moded, but their wasnt many choices when I was looking.

The "STOCK" looking evo's could of been modded before and returned back to stock so make sure to inspect the car well. I have seen many low-mileage evos that were highly modded but later returned back to "STOCK"

That's what I was thinking. Just because a car is stock doesn't mean it wasn't modded. Look really closely at all 3 cars under the hood and if you happen to have a friend with a garage and a lift it would be good to look under the car as well. Drive them all and make sure nothing is funky on them.
Think about how many part-outs there are on these forums. Craigslist, ebay etc. Stock doesn't mean they were "always" stock.

2010 stock, theres only 2 reasons people sell modded cars, either they're about to blow up or the owner feels its about to blow up or some crisis came up and they needed to sell to fix it

Impossible to tell with mileage/year/mods only. I'm usually a price/mileage/year shopper, but there's a lot than can't be determined until you look at it in person. I've looked at a lot of cars that are good on paper, but are edgy when you see them in person. I always end up buying cars that aren't the cheapest for sale, or the lowest mileage, but that are the cleanest for the price.
You say you're buying out of state - I hope you will see the physical car before you buy. Usually when you see a "too good to be true" deal, it is. Where are you buying them from? large dealer? Pot lot? An individual?
You can't tell whether a car has been sprayed or abused from pics.
