Before I'd dive in to R&R the starter, I'd try rigging up something (perhaps temporarily) to provide 12v straight from the battery to the starter (perhaps via relay). The purple wire is fairly accessible and not hard to splice into. If the car always starts that way, you'll know the starter is not the problem (which is good. They are pretty deep to get to, and hard to find or expensive if you decide to buy a new one).

Hope this helps.
