Default The home stretch.. down to my final two choices for a new daily driver, cant decide!

This will be my new daily driver AND more importantly my new open track day car when I don't feel like taking Penny (or she is getting worked on)

Thoughts?

Anyways.. my great 'Vette search is almost over.. Most of you talked me into going with a C5 and now it's down to two contenders..

The first is an '99 Pewter FRC with 69,000 miles on it.. no hud or many options but it does have a Borla exhaust and aftermarket intake (and 2000 wheels). Vince checked it out for me and it's a nice ride. 400 miles away in NorCal. Has maint paperwork, but mismatched tires (front and back different)..

Second car is a 2000 Silver Coupe with 52k miles.. has hud and a host of factory options and aftermarket stuff (you can see them in the add).. 70 miles away in San Diego.

I had really wanted an FRC, but the coupe seems to be the better car. I could care less about the Targa deal and I liked the FRC due to less weight and a stiffer chassis. But, I will be driving on the street more than the track and I am sure both will be fun to drive.

I am really stuck so what do I do? Ask my online bretheren.. deal or no deal? (and on which one)..

Oh, I can get either car for right around $20k.
