Caterpillar 955L vs. International 175

Good evening,
I live in Italy and I only see caterpillar loaders , fiat-allis and some komatsu .
My neighbor bought an International 175, says it is a beast and that it is much much better than the 955L. I'm a Caterpillar fan, but I must say that the 175 has a nice engine sound.
I saw that the planetary gears, and the arms with z-bar linkage.
You know me a comparison of these items?
Ex. best engine, better transmission, steering system, driveability, hydraulic system, etc. ..
Opinions and technical information are very welcome.

thanks
