I would go with the green car.

IRS, disc brakes, and side oiler are all big +++ in my mind. Of course this assumes everything else is relatively equal and/or the budget does not matter at all. It also does not take into consideration the intended use.

Bottom line you know far more about these cars than I do. I suspect the left side of your brain wants one car, the right side wants the other, and you want us to help you sort out which side is correct. You do know that in the end there is no absolute correct answer, right?
