P-01
Blessed be the Lord my rock who trains my hands for war and my fingers for battle. Psalm 144:1
Si vis pacem, para bellum
Had the P-01 for several years and loved it. Of all pistols on the planet, the Browning Hi-Power, the CZ P-01 and the Kahr K9 are the three that fit my hand best. Though a bit large for me, the ergonomics and controls are nearly perfect IMO. It's accurate and reliable. Particularly if you get a gunsmith to go over it after a couple thousand rounds (to smooth any rough spots), it should be an excellent gun to have. Many IPSC/IDPA folks rely on the CZ 75 series for competition and have one of the compact CZ's (P-01, PCR, 2075 RAMI) for carry.
I would highly recommend the P-01 (if you want to carry anything on the rail) or PCR (if otherwise).

I have the RAMI and my bro-in-law has the P-01 which I have shot. Both are great. The RAMI is a tad wider but the RAMI barrel is nearly an inch shorter (3 vs 3.9" on P-01) so for concealability it depends which is your greater concern. I think the RAMI also has the shorter grip length but don't have the numbers handy. The P-01 and PCR have Crimson Trace available (model LG-476), the RAMI has no laser options (if that matters to you).
pro-CZ's, pro-AR's, anti-CZAR's
Other than the accessory rail on the P-01 and different sights on each gun, I don't see too much difference in the two weapons. You really can't go wrong with either. Just depends on how important attaching a tactical light or light/laser on your pistol is to you.
Oh, wait. The PCR is 20 bucks cheaper. In this Obama economy, you have to watch every penny. Get the PCR.
