You didn't supply enough info.
  • With all else being equal, do you prefer a coupe or convertible?
  • Colors?
  • Transmissions?
  • Other options, e.g. navigation?
  • Condition of vehicles?

No way an LS3 would be worth the extra 32k miles for me. Now if the 2010 had 9k miles, that would be a different story.
