Get the ssb, then spend $50 and plastidip your wheels black. Ssb with black wheels looks like carbon edition. Or you can always buy a set of chromes or whatever. Most owners have 2 sets of wheels anyway.
As for mileage, are you a collector or we you going to drive it? If you're going to drive, 14k vs 2k doesn't make much difference.

As a X Used Car dealer, I would say get what you like but blue is the worse re-sale color in the world. No offense to those of you that own blue cars but I couldn't give a blue car away. And yes BLACK is a pita but has to be one of the most sought after colors there is. Even in AZ. I had no problem selling a black car. The old saying is true, Nothing prettier than a shiny black car and nothing harder to keep it that way. I would go with the black just for the re-sale issue you have in mind in the near future. My top selling colors for the Phoenix area were 1- WHITE, 2- SILVER and of course, #3- re-sale RED.

I love the presence of my all black z but damn it's a pain to keep clean. And I keep it in my garage and only drive it once a week on nice days... I saw a ssb carbon edition or whatever it's called. Zr1 splitter, sides, and spoiler. Zr1 gunmetal wheels too, it was a pretty damn impressive looking car I must admit, and I'm not even a huge fan of that blue. In a perfect world I'd have my exact car in white, but that wasn't available in my price range.

It's just back breaking to keep it that way.

I had my black 2001 Z06 detailed professionally (by someone that could do it without creating swirl marks) once per quarter for the 18 months I had it in late 2000-2002.
It would look outstanding for a couple of weeks after that.
