Can't be that these two cars are close in price? If you are really looking at a car then the newest model year you can afford is the car to get. If you don't like or want cyber grey, don't get a car in that color.

$4700 apart is nothing. Unless the 2010 has a ton more miles it should be more like $10k more. Maybe more.

It's going to be a pleasure car so...I originally was thinking convertible but lately am kind of in the coupe camp. Either would be fine w/me my brain is telling me the Grand Sport is the practical choice, a few years it will be a really low mile car>

Mark
This is a toughie....yeah, I'd go with the GS roughly 101 times out of 100.
