Default Headers: Ceramic vs. Stainless?

Like the topic says, is there any advantage (besides aesthetics and price) of having the stainless header over the ceramic ones, or vice versa?

The only advantage I see with the ceramic is price, but the stainless steel headers have a nice finish and are long lasting while the ceramic could crack over time.

Ceramic headers run cooler and lighter. Stainless headers last longer and looks better.

personally, I'd go with Stainless....it's a bit stronger.
