Without knowing anything else other than a 2010 R3 or 2005 Shinka I'd say go with the R3. The extended warranty on the '05 will be up sometime this year, so it's a safer bet with the R3 in that regard. Plus, with the R3 you get sweet wheels and seats. Make sure to check out the stickies in each sub-forum as well.

Mileage on each?
Assuming 12k miles per year for 8 years that Shinka sounds over priced.
It should be under 12k with the R3 around 19k again depending on mileage and condition.

What are the asking prices and the mileage?
My 09 R3 was 16k, I'm just curious to know what they want for the 2010
R3 I would say but i'm biased. Recaro Seats>Everything
Plus the warranty will give you peace of mind. Go for the compression test too. That way you'll have a benchmark for the engine condition to compare with as the car ages.
