I like the red one more, but the blue one is definately a better deal.

Blue. Sharp looking car and fewer of them on the road, or at least I've seen fewer.

Only thing that might make me a little nervous is that 06 was the first year of the new style, but as people have mentioned here before the engine and driveline were pretty much "tested" on other vehicles before so the bugs should be worked out of them by 06.

Good luck, keep us informed!

Biased opinion, yes...but I say go BLUE! The laser blue is a beautiful color when all washed up. Not to mention the blue one is a better deal.

As for the 07 having the powertrain warranty, that is a good point. However, you could purchase an extended warranty, and still be a little ahead with the blue one.

You have to decide if the color is going to be your deciding point. I'd try to find a good mechanic friend and have him look them both over. Then I'd haggle with the dealers and see which one may come out as the better deal... depending on the dealer, they may be more willing to cut a deal on the red 07 than the blue 06 becuase it has higher miles for its year.... so it's hard to say, really.

Laser Blue Metallic is a fantastic color. and the car looks like a better deal.

Go with the Red one, especially if it has a transferable warranty.

The 2006 just means that Dex-cool has sat for a whole extra year :P

Are they certified? If so, they both have the 100,000 powertrain warranty and a 12 month 12,000 mile factory warranty. Way to go is certified, i know from experience! Mine is at the dealer right now getting some stuff fixed for free.
