From a performance standpoint I would take the S4 over the Aero. I have recently driven a 2000 Aero five speed, and been a passenger in a new S4. The S4 was one hell of a wild ride. Loved the AWD with torque split and the 6-speed was fun. Car was fast. ~5.5 sec to 60 vs ~6.5 for Aero S4 tops out at 143 and then the speed limiter kicks in, I think the Aero will do a little more.
If you are worried about interior space, I think the choice becomes almost as obvious in the other direction. The Aero is much more practical than the S4.
Looks I would go with the Aero as well, but I may be partial.
Handling would go to the S4. S4 has almost 0 torque steer. (Multilink SLA with short spindle length, and only 40% torque to front wheels)
Price -> Aero is cheaper.
I would get the S4 personally if the price was equal. Taking price into consideration, the Aero might be the winner.
