You'll arrive about 10m sooner (1h 34m by train vs 1h 44m by car). Tickets start at around $35 (€29) compared to roughly $29 (€24) in fuel and tolls — so you're paying a bit more, but getting hours of your day back, a city-centre arrival, and the freedom to work or relax instead of drive.
Driving makes more sense if you're travelling as a group (where fuel costs split several ways), want to stop along the way, or need a car once you arrive.
