I would get the '09 personally. There is nothing on the new car that makes it worth the $10,000 more you'll be paying.
Spend the $600 (approx)total for a decent oil cooler and install, and you'll only really need it if you spend a lot of time driving it hard or put it on the track. I'm not sure what the issue is with the steering wheel lock as I have an '09 and have had no issues with the steering wheel in any way.
Spend the $1200 on a full detail service (not the crappy dealer service!) that finishes with a high quality sealant.
The 3,000 miles on the car tells me one thing, it's broken in! Be on the safe side and get the carfax report on it first.
