Given the data, I would vote for Contestant #1 only because Florida is nice on cars. By nice I mean without any road salt during the winters, the undercarriage probably looks the best.

But of course, I'm not there to do an inspection.
 
I think #1 or #2, less risk of salt exposure. Would prefer to inspect the cars.

Florida and nearby areas are not necessarily a good thing, if the car has been parked outside a lot.
Headlights, paint, HVAC unit and other things are fried from the heat/sun.

Good point. I forgot about that. If it's close to the Ocean, I've heard that salt air could be a problem.

Needs to be inspected.

Unless your waterfront, that would not be a problem. If you're on waterfront property then you should have a garage.
 
trunk cd changer is no big thing, stock radio is no winner either..if you want to remain stock appearance..upgrade to 2005-07 for escape or mercury mariner audiophile unit..sounds better, looks stock, plug n play and has 6 disc in dash cd player..trunk cd player will not work though but whop cares with in dash
