Ha ha, Miles on the car isn't the problem, the miles between the cars is. I'm posting from Europe. Good thought though.

I drove 200 miles with a low boy trailer behind my truck to pick up a silver 6MT and I've never regretted it. There were lots of black 6MT's and a blue one locally at the time. Of course it didn't hurt that the out of town dealer agreed to match the lowest price I found

Edited to add - not sure what I would have done if there had been a significant price difference and that's a decision only you can make.

Overall, I'm gonna dive in and hope for the best
Hey, you'll be happy with it. It may not be the perfect color but I adore that black interior.

Just make sure you wash it regularly, even a spray down and a 10 minute wash a week will do well. Or stock up on Turtle Wax Black Detailer... I've never seen a black quite as deep as Tbot's, so ask him for tips.

Should I go for the white one that's far.. Or take the black one and save thousands?! Need some input here people.. "Guide thy will toward honda (color) greatness"

Personally, I would go for the White Pearl over Black.

Over the length of time you will own the CRZ what difference is $2,000 !

Might even recover some of that $2,000 when you sell it, the same way it is going for more now.
Model, equipment, Navi ?
