Keep the Connie. The Tali is a nice ship, but it's really built for one job: blowing the shit out of things. Sure, it can fit modules to pinch hit on other occupations, but it's a very focused craft. The Connie, on the other hand, is an extremely versatile craft. It might not have the sheer offensive capability of the Retaliator, but it's a better explorer and cargo handler and is still very capable of taking care of itself.

You can always buy the CCU and not apply it, they cost the same $275.
Make the final decision later.
But I agree with most about keeping the Connie.

I have to vote for Connie as well, you have more pilot controlled weapons and need less crew to be combat ready compared to a Retaliator.
If you plan on being on a bomber wing or plan to use the troop transport mod then the Retaloator would be great

I've had my 'Tali for 6 months now, and I can remember getting ONE torpedo kill, and even with the turrets fully manned it's hard to get any real firepower concentrated on a target long enough to kill it. A little harder to kill than say, a Super Hornet, but I'm beginning to think it's going to be good only for pumping torpedoes into big ships and running away. I get better results against fighters with the Connie.

Hey, I can you tell that: I've bought the Talli (for upgrading her lateron to the Carrack as soon as she is available), tested her and so on - well, long story short: its a real magnificent looking ship, and HUGE - but also lame within gameplay currently. And definitely you need a crew at least of captain + 4 (real life) mates if you don't want to be blown outta space! And lateron, you will be bound on military groups (or kind of) and act in strategic focussed combat missions with no way to do something on your own. You like that and have a bunch of bros who fly with you at any time? Go ahead, fucking awesome ship! You want to have an allrounder which you can, if necessary, steer on your own and - perhaps with one NPC - can operate successfully even in exploring missions? The Connie is your ship of choice.
I guess this is as good a place as any to ask this: If I melt My 'Tali for store credits and get a Redeemer, do I still get to play with the 'Tali until the Redeemer is flight ready?

Well, I melted most of my hangar, and CCUd my Cutlass package into a Connie Aquila. I mean it has a Rover and stuff.....
Because I'm not made of money.... (and I bought a vive...)It should come down to whatever you will feel like doing once the game launches... weigh in the roles of both and make your decision.. if you cant come up with one then...
Edit: Also, how much was the Carrack btw?
