Both nice looking cars, but i'd go with the black one because it's enthusiast owned history over the last five years and has had the work carried out by the right people, and once you get used to the 390 bhp you will not need to spend a fortune to have it running circa 450/460bhp as it already has the turbo to get you there, maybe just injectors front mount and a map tweak, and you will have a ballistic missile.

My thoughts exactly mate , definitely prefer enthusiast owned car as you just know they care for them , my old wrx was running 375bhp and as usual you always want more ,
Hopefully viewing the black one on Friday
