Getting ready to buy VAG-COM. Should I go with HEX-USB+CAN -or- KII-USB
Is the faster speed with a CAN-Bus interface worth the extra $100?
I plan on doing <i>moderate</i> logging and <i>tons</i> of scanning/clearing codes (thank you always-broken-and-expensive-to-fix-s4)
Currently leaning heavily towards going with the HEX-USB+CAN
What do you guys recommend?

I have the HEX USB... it works great with our cars. however if you get a newer audi,
you need the +CAN otherwise you're SOL! So if I had to do it all over, I'd go with the +can, just in case.

I got the CAN, just to give myself the extra flexibility, and ability to scan newer cars...
never know when you'll need it, or a friend will need it.
It's just a nice to have.
