Same make and model, 15+ years of age. One has a nice interior, single owner, lots of records and maintenance has been kept up. But it has "some surface rust".
The other appears to be rust-free, but paint a bit faded, the interior is tired (would probably respond to a good detailing though), multi-owner, some records but spotty. Would probably need catch-up on deferred mechanical maintenance, maybe things like rehabbing the suspension, flush and fill all fluids, etc. Which would you choose? I'm more inclined towards the rust-free one because I just HATE trying to fix rust. Mechanical stuff doesn't seem like such a nightmare; even if the repairs in the end are similar $$, in my experience rust almost always comes back, usually pretty quickly. Thoughts?
