Is this G worth it?

I really want black on black, but I'm debating if I should settle for this:

Checked it out yesterday, and it seems like its decent, has a few flaws like a led drilled into the shift console (ugly) and balding tires. Also, scratches on the bumper (NYC parking I assume) But the price isn't horrible, and I'm sure I can talk it down. It's been on the lot for a few months (I think) so I'm sure they're looking to get rid of it.

Then I came across a silver one:

It definitely looks in better condition (internet pictures) and it's got lower miles and navigation which is something I want! Only downside is that it's silver and I'm not a fan of silver cars...

Would you guys just settle or keep searching? I'm in need of a new car and I have about 6 days to purchase a new car..

Black is tougher to keep clean IMO. Silver hides dirt/dust so unless you wanna wash every 3-4 days, it might look dusty. Cant go wrong either way, they both would be great!

An 05 with 37k.. I'd be willing to bet they'd take 18500.

From what I learned from past experiances... NEVER settle. As much as I love my black G35, white was my first choice. So everytime I see a white G35, it reminds me of what I could have had.

go with the silver, it looks great with the spoiler, it has the navi, and less miles. Def talk em down to 19k. I would also get the owner history on both. I bougt my 04' G last feb(it was a lease and was in imaculate condiditon).

Why six days? See, I really want a black on black too, and I would murder it out. Can't do that with silver. So get what you really want.

Universal Subaru has a couple black/black G35 Coupes... Just expand your search radius.

And one last thing, if you really want black on black, then go for a black interior. You can easily paint the outside. Expensive yes, but easy. But swapping out tan interior for black, carpet, seats, dash, much harder and probably more expensive.

Registration on current car is expiring and there's no point in renewing since I want to get a new car anyway. Wouldn't want to repaint and I've seen the Universal Subaru's, if you read their disclaimer, you must finance through them to receive the price and I've heard bad things about them. But thanks.

I've owned black and silver cars. Black definitely looks badass when its clean... with that said I would never get another black vehicle again. Too hard to keep clean IMO. My G is silver now and I love it!
