Default 28.4 on a new '05 - best resale color?

I've negotiated 28,400 straight cash, no trade at two different dealers. One has a Silverstone/Black S, and the other has a Rio/Black S. I flip my cars just about every year. First, can I do any better on the deal (both are 25-30 mile cars), and second, which color holds its resale better. THANKS!

Silverstone will generally hold better resale value compared to Rio.

Rio is more rare in my opinion.

i think when u sell it u might get a little more for the rio since it is a rarer color, but i think it would be much easier to sell the silver
