I would be all over that 03. In my opinion they look better, will definitely outlast your 3v and you cant kill them. The 03's had all the spark plug blowout issues resolved and were pretty close to bulletproof. I actually just looked at trading my 05 in for an 03 but unfortunately it was pretty rough looking in person. Another thing I like about the 03 is the front seat with the open floorboard all the way across. If you are buying for reliability and longevity get the 03.

If it were me, I'd put in about $1500 to $2000 and get your 04 running and looking how you want it.

What the point in admitting to a dumb decision such as that?
