Default Need help - Which H2 to buy??

Hey Guys... I need a little help. I cant make up mind. I am buying my son a H2 for Xmas. Its his first car. I have narrowed it down to 2 choices...

He originally wanted white. But when he saw this red it quickly became his second choice. A close second. He actually likes and chooses the red over the white because of the chrome. But I can buy the chrome for the white and add it on later on... right? (chrome front rack, running boards, tail light covers) I posted pics below.... I have never liked red vehicles but my wife likes the red better.... Are there any differences from 2003 to 2004? Should I hold out and hope to find a 2005 - 2008? I cant imagaine I will ever find many more H2's in this good of condition with this few miles...

It is either a.....

2004 - Red - with 25k Miles. Limited edition. Has air shocks.

or

2003 - White with 15k Miles.

Both are in poerfcon condition. Not a single flaw. They were very well taken care of look brand new. Never off road. Driven by women. I cant even find a scuff mark on them.

I really wanted a newer one but they seem to be scarce around here.... Should I hold out and keep looking? I really dont care about getting more power in the 2007 and 2008 models. I really dont want him to have much power anyways. He is 16 and all.....

Oh yeah... As you can see the red has the shiny wheels that he likes too.... It also has the spare on the outside... which we both like. The mount is still on the inside but it looks easy enough to remove. Since it is Limited Edition are there other upgrades that the regular white model wont have?

I personally prefer the Adventure package with the rear air suspension for towing but, If you want to save him the headaches that go along with it and he isn't going to be towing anything big, go with the white one. It looks like it is the base model with rear coil springs instead of air springs. All the other differences are going to be stereo/sunroof /navigation etc. stuff like that. no chassis/engine/trany differences.

No he wont ever tow with it...... What headaches? Just the leaks that I read about?

The adventure package comes with the Limited Edition?

Thanks.

Default Adventure Package

Both seem to be a great low mileage find! Having a choice i would go with Red because of adventure options. The air suspension and air pump is a must for me.

I wish I could find a low mileage 09 special edition in my neck of the woods????? Anyone..... Two is better than one.....

We love our 03 H2 with 160K trouble free miles.... And it will ugly away for its not for sale.

Sounds like your son is going to have a great Christmas!

I would go with the 2004 Red H2, the mileage is very low and the options seem to be much better than the white. I'm sure your son will love it!

Thaks guys..... I am going to buy the red one right now. We are meeting at his house and he will sign the title over to me and give me the keys.... He is even going to keep it in his garage for me until Christmas Eve.

I got him down to $24,500.00. For here in California that is a steal. He met my son when we looked at it and thought it was going to a good home. He liked my son and thought he would take care of it.....
I am excited. I cant wait until Christmas Morning...
