2013 GTS or 2014 GTS

Here's a quick question and I guess needed advice from the Panamera gurus. I have decided on a gts after going back and forth on getting a turbo or the new S550.
Now the new issue is do I get a 2013 GTS or go for the 2014? Here are my confusion points/possible deal breakers,

1. I like the headlights of the 2014 with the 4 dots on the outer lining of the lamps which i believe is adaptive headlights (i could be wrong) vs the only light option you have for the 2013 gts and i believe the turbos have it as well.

2. Body style for 2014 seems a little sleeker but I love the 2013 body style as well. Dont know what direction to go.

3. The 2014s cost alot more than the 2013s. Is it really worth the price difference?

4. The 2014s still have their warranty's vs 2013s which you have to buy in addition at this point.

What is the mileage on each? Maintenance and repairs are expensive on these puppies. Having a warranty coverage is a must

1. The four centralized dots are the daytime running lamps (Bi-Xenon). The 4 markers around the ring of the headlights signifies the car is equipped with LED headlights, which are more intense (and also more expensive).


2. Get a Certified warranty from Porsche on either one.
3. IMO 2014 is the way to go, updated body style, +10 hp, PDK software is also tweaked along with front suspension details for robustness.

I was leaning towards the 2014. Extra 10hp and a tweaked platform might just be worth it.
