red one looks like a RS and the white 03 isnt. Both are really clean though atleast look that way. The red one deff isnt stock though, looks like an intercooler and says "tasteful mods"

go with the white 03, looks like it was well taken care of and lightly tampered with. Check out the engine and everything first and id say for price its a bit high but its better then the 32k Autopoint wants for that MR they have, http://seattle.craigslist.org/tac/ctd/2698344587.html its also looks like the 05 silver one they have is bone stock and looks like a good deal at 21k.

the white one looks like it's going for 19k on CL

but the silver one at sea-auto has 70k on the car

Yes, i do like the white one alot. but with 46k on the body, how low can the price go u think?

they are asking too much for the white 03... it is clean, but id talk them down to 17 or 18

i purchased my 03 from this same dealership in 08 with 50k miles for 17

To me the red looks like a gsr ix cause of the lip, the split 5 star wheels, and it doesn't have a vortex generator on the roof. I think they have the wrong info on the red. Oh, the a gsr ix is a 5speed. The good new is the car looks like it has aftermarket goodies....

RS's are super cool.

Unfortunately, the red one isn't an RS. RS's are cheaper, lighter weight, and all business. They only have black door handles I believe and the red car has colored match door handles.

MR's are cool. But I would yank the 6 speed and put a 5 speed in if you have to have the MR. And I would definitely get a IX. They don't cost a ton anymore compared to when they first came out.
