I wrestled with going for a 4.7 originally, had a post about it too, and after much thought decided to stick with a 5.7. But...cost of ownership, tax, gas, and state tags will probably all go up along with the extra $1200 entry fee. Also, I couldn't feel a huge difference between the two with no load except the 4.7 is definitely quieter...
