I've been debating this one myself for some time. I tried a 749S originally, it didn't have Termi's and it left me cold. Quick and easy to ride, but not 'special' in the way a 996 feels.

Since then I've ridden a 999 and I thought it was superb, but I won't be buying one at the moment, we're trying to move house and I can't really justify going out and buying a new bike right now. I agree with what's been said, the 996 feels aggresive and focused right from the start, the 999 is faster and easier to ride, so in my book that makes it a better bike.
