The Touring package is basically a "luxury" option and doesn't have much to do with performance. You get better interior, heated seats, Bose audio (6-CD changer), &c.
It boils down to: do you like the amenities that come with the Touring option enough to spend the extra bucks. In my case, the answer was yes. YMMV
And, as per Chuck33079, $42k is outrageous unless it's a Touring + Sport with all the other options (eg, Nav).
