Need Assistance

I would appreciate a few opinions. I have a 2004 996 C4S which I have upgraded a bit with short shift kit, headers, cold air intake, touch screen nav and dvd, radar/lazer defense system. I have about 23K miles on it. I really like the car but am thinking about and have found a 2009 Turbo 997. Great looking car with only about 14K miles, ceramic brakes and very clean in and out. I am concerned that if I make the trade I will miss the sound of the naturally aspirated engine and the handling of the C4S. I have also had several people comment that the C4S could be one of the few 996's that have some value one day. ------ Very different cars and both fun, anyone else have a similar dilemma and what was your resolution?

This is a no brainer trade in my book.
