Drooling over a possibly "new" daily driver

Hmmm I've been thinking about getting a new DD to replace the the trusty Corolla, and now I found these two beauties. Whadda ya guys think, do they have potential or what? =)
Both are 2.0L 2M Series80 Crowns. The first is supposed to be in a better shape overall, but priced 1800€ and 1900€... Just can't figure out if I should contact the sellers and try to make an offer. I could get the money in hand in a week or two, if I postpone buying BBK's for the Aristo.

Haha didn't even notice that tiger and leopard back there.
Yeah true, it's hard not to mod your DD, especially now that my main project is still in sanding coat... but I can picture me driving a stock Crown for the entire winter while I finish the Aristo.

But will see next week when my finance problem is sorted out. If I get out with a nice stack of left-over cash, maybe I'll take the 1100km b2b trip there to check em out in person :dunno:
