Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

0 original-poster resolution reports. Counts can overlap; they are not unique people or a success rate.
0 discussions have direct query context; 0 report a fix in that context. Other evidence may inherit the discussion’s subject.
Suspected cause
If you are going for resale value, I think the C4S hold better value cause is rarer.
Leading evidence: 'rarer' (no explicit attributable resolution; this is a reported action or suggestion). Across 1 matching discussions, the most frequently mentioned possible cause is 'rarer' (1 discussions; 0 report identifying it and 1 suggest it). No action has an explicit, attributable resolution report under the current rules. These are forum reports and suggestions, not a confirmed diagnosis.
Source reports, not a diagnosis or a success probability. Counts refer to discussions and can overlap.
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

The aero kit cars seem to hold their value fairly well 3.4 or 3.6. The C4S's are comming way down in price. There is a 2002 locally with 24K on the clock that just lowered the price to $44K.
Interested in the pros, cons and opinions of the choices above.
Tough choice:
C4S - pretty even without an aerokit but slower and heavier.
C2 - faster and more agile but needs an aerokit to futher enhance its lines.
C2 works well with snow tires also.
All depends on what you are after. I personally like the C2 with aero kit look better. If you are going for resale value, I think the C4S hold better value cause is rarer.
Another vote on the C4s looks-wise, but you knew that already.
Where do you live?
If you live where there is a lot of wet weather, I'd go for the 4, if you live in Cali or Az, Tx, NM etc you could make an intelligent argument for the 2, from the handling perspective.
I'm in Nevada. So AWD makes no real differnce to me.
Good pros and cons here. The narrow C2 with aero looks great is lighter and probably faster even though it is a 3.4, but the 4S is no eye sore eigher. The 4S has the 3.6 and turbo brakes, suspension, AWD etc...
decisions, decisions.
I'd take the C4S any day. Obviously I'm biased, but there is just so much more to the C4S, which you apparently already know about. And which is faster? That is way, way, open to debate. I've had fun the last 6 years on this forum with just that topic. You can do a search and see it all and more. Suffice it to say that nothing is a given even bewteen the 3.6 engined brethren.
On the looks department, I've often wondered whether I would prefer the C4S with an aerokit. When I had cash, I decided I'd rather by a set of track wheels and tires rather than aerokit. Next cycle of disposable cash, I figured I'd rather spend the money on the X73 suspension. Next cycle, I decided to better spend it on GT3 seats, roll bar, 6 point harness. You can see where I'm going. Regardless, in the looks department, between a base C4S and a C2 with aerokit I think the C4S still looks better hands down.
Don't forget your third & best option: A mkII C2 with the Aerokit II (preferably from the factory).
That way you get the 3.6L same as the C4S, mkII GT3 looks, and with the lightness and handling of a C2. Win, win, win.
Your only trouble will be finding one for sale!
