Default H&R or PSS9

Well, since I'm spaming all the Audi forums, figure why leave you guys out.

S4 Cabriolet, daily driver. Pretend there are no other choices for suspension (because I'm only choosing between these two coilover kits and not entertaining any other ideas) except H&R and PSS9. Which would you buy?

I'm on the fence and need some help deciding if I should spend the extra $500 for PSS9.

PSS9 Pros:
I like the easy adjustments
I like that I can fiddle with the dampening
I think they appear to be better constructed than the H&Rs
I can set them at almost stock ride height

PSS9 Cons:
People reporting the cadillac float on the freeway if set too soft


H&R Pros:
Cheaper
Cheaper and that's about all I can think of.

H&R Cons:
I've had H&R coilovers before and the rear spring perch broke twice
I don't remember, but I think even at the highest settings the rear was fairly low
The part # covers 4cyl, 6cyl and 8cyl, I don't the spring rates are right for the heavier S4

Which would you go with? Daily driver, want an upgrade over stock, want to corner balance, want to set height exactly where I want it.
