Continental GP 4 Season v. Continental Grand Prix 4000?

I know, I know...this is a perennial question.
After riding the summer on Vittoria Rubino Pro's (which I love for their "stickiness"), It's time to get a pair of "rough-riders" for the upcoming colder seasons (which always yeild more crap in the streets) for my new bike.
The gist of my question is...
What is the recommendation of either the Continental GP 4 Season or the Continental Grand Prix 4000?
Other than weight, (15g doesn't really matter to me)
The 4-season has 430 tpi and the 400 has 330 tpi, which leads me towards the 4-season...
The 4-season's list with Duraskin... While the 4000's use Vectran, will that make a significant difference?
