Hey all - been a long time lurker and finally have the itch to fulfill some of my longstanding DSM fantasies. I have been saving up some cash, so it is time to get something that will put a smile on my face as a DD - specifically I have always really been into the 2g Eclipse model, and I have found two cars that seem to fit what I am looking for.
Both cars are in great condition and also have their cons, and I would really appreciate any advice on them from those who know DSM better than me.
First car is stock with 100,500 miles

Second car is modified (with things I would probably do anyways) but only has 35,000 original miles - checked out with carfax. I would jump on this one immediately but it has a CEL randomly on start up which goes away after the car has been running for a while. Will most likely not pass emissions as it sits. Owner seems really honest and told me up front that it also has the notorious lifter tick which I did not experience when I went to see it.

Again, any advice about the two would be appreciated. Which would you choose and why? Or if you want to just say hey that works too.
