The GTO1014 is more expensive. It's a "GTO" hence higher than the "GT" in JBL's lineup. The main difference will go to the added 2" that the GT12 has. Since surface area is king when it comes to bass - that's why although there are small subwoofers, larger subwoofers will still eat them for lunch.
I will caution muna sa mga seller. Make sure you trust him. Ask him how long as it been used and make sure to get a personal warranty. While subwoofers are durable speakers, most people especially in the budget range, tend to misuse their subwoofers.
Also, the box should conform to your needs. If trunk space is important, then go for a smaller sealed enclosure over the typically bigger ported box.
There's no such thing as matching in car audio. Your car acoustics alone is the biggest variable and since you can't control that, there's no such thing as "matching" in car audio. Level matching is simply tuning the amplifier gains so that your speakers and subwoofer output isn't overpowering each other -- they're "level" when it comes to their loudness.
