Well either way, the starter isn't the cause of my problems. I just replaced the starter and I'm still having starting issues.

I get the single click when attempting to start.

I've tried letting it sit on prior to starting, disconnecting, and reconnecting the battery. It will eventually start, but there's no time frame on when. Sometimes it'll start after a minute, but just now it took about 15 minutes before it started. It doesn't seem to matter whether the car has been driven previously or not - it happens between drives, and on cold starts.

When it finally does decide to attempt to start, it takes about 15 seconds of cranking until it finally kicks over. However, if it starts on the 1st attempt it takes no time at all and cranks right over. It seems to be an all or nothing deal.

Anyone have any ideas on what the possible causes are? I have a new battery and starter done already.
