It sounds like both cars are about evenly split. It would almost seem as though it would not matter which one you get. If you can drive them I say drive them and see which one you like the feel of more. As you know when buying things like this it is in a large part what you personally like. If you like the options in one car than go for it. As for the high miles I dont know much about the 997 motors but many prior 911's are well known for going well over 200K. I will admit that the low miles is a nice selling point and that car sounds a bit cleaner. As for the winter driving the 997 is coated with a galvanic paint that will protect it from rust.

Do either of these cars come with any sort of a warranty, being this new many cars of this era are still sold certified pre-owned. If this is the case you may not want to worry about the minor things.
