They are both corsa red. 05 is basic with no significant options. The 06 with 12k has ceramic brakes and daytona seats. I will put at most 1k miles/year and keep the car for 3 years.

i do the 06' if thats ur only 2 choices.
but highly recommend a 07' or later because they actually improved the interior materials and the seats have better feeling softer more durable leather.

Of those 2, 06. But like John said, if you can (now, or wait) I'd get 07. Also in 08 Ceramic brakes became standard (so you don't need a HIGHLY optioned 08). The difference between 5 and 12k is not significant - and 5K is almost too low. Cars run better when they are driven regularly.
