It all depends on what you want. . I would say an 06. . whenever you buy a used car, you never know what's done. Most of the time your getting other people's problems. .

Just my .02

GL with the buy

00's have proven to be the weakest AP1 with the 2003 being stronger.

my vote is 04-05.

Glass rear window can be big.

Figure out how much you want to spend. Then consider what years you are looking at. For most drivers, the cars will not differ much.

Remember the warranty too.

I prefer the 00-03. More "raw" and true to the original heritage, and the F20C was used globally in Japan and Europe from 00-05. In the 06 they are all 2.2 liters.

Not a fan of anything America gets and the rest of the world doesn't (as far as 04-05 when they hadn't mass produced the F22 globally) as usually America is the country to get screwed import car-wise.

So yeah, just opinion though, I don't want AP2 owners hating on me &gt;_&lt; i mean, its still the same basic car, but yeah, I have preferences
