Upgrading from an '09 6MT to a '14 6MT.....charting the changes

I am considering selling my '09 6MT non-tech this summer to use the equity (car is paid for) as a down payment for a house and then purchasing a new '14 6MT at a low interest rate. It seems with the discontinuation of this model the selling price of a 2014 SE 6MT is in the $27-$28 range which can only get better as the dealers try to clear room for the TLX. I'm a big fan of the current car and would have no issue buying another one, especially given the price. Here is a list of changes I've noticed over the life cycle of the car....

*New front and rear bumpers and side skirts with the SE.
*Partial leather/suede seats and door trim.
*Woodgrain look trim on the center console.
*Red stiching on the steering wheel.
*Revised steering feel
*Upgraded braking system

What else am I missing?

The SE lighting is red as well (speedometer/tachometer, foot well lights, etc.).

Oh how I wish Acura would have given the SE the Tech package and I wonder how many sales they may have lost due to this. Yes I understand the economics of production costs but something tells me they would have turned a profit on this.
