Another 18 within 100 miles, including an 01 with 27K starting at $39

There seem to be a lot of 99s and cabs. Also try HBL and Porsche of Arlington. Depending on what you want to spend, Fairfax motors has a really nice 02 Targa. I love looking and if you want some help in the area let me know. I'll be glad to help.

I really appreciate your help JSainDC, actually I already took a look at all of those 
The last one at Jim Coleman already sold last week. The search continues, or I may just stick with the Red in Denver if all check out.
Thanks again

Full aero's will bring over $40k without much effort. It's worth more than any other option especiall a full aero! They are hard to find and the rear wing is the most expensive part. I'm sure others will chime in here.

Wow...the interior of the red one is pristine! With prices firm, I'd likely opt for the speed yellow -- lower miles and full aerokit. $2,500 will not get you the kit with the taco wing, that is unless you don't care for it. Plus given these two color choices, I tend to prefer yellow over red. PPI is a must on both, of course!

The red one is at Highline Motors in Ft Collins? They have a good rep. and sell clean cars. If you do a PPI on the red, I would go with Poudre Sport Car in Ft Collins. I also live about 2 miles from them if you want me to go look at the car for you.

I'd go with yellow. IMHO, pre face lift cars look dated and too tame without aerokit. no offense to anyone, JMO.
You do need to get service, warranty and accident records. If the car bounced around a few owners or dealers, it's suspicious. also PPI is a must. Most likely, the Denver car sat during winters and was a weekend car. Make sure there is no repeat RMS history.
Don't let $2-3k sway you. If both are equally priced, which do you want? Get that ONE!
