Well, I think it might make sense to get the Touring pkg for heated leather seats (not to mention Bluetooth and whatever else comes with Touring). Not so sure it's worth ponying up for the nav system though, not if it's just an issue of looks. You don't mention anything about needing or wanting the actual functionality of nav, so if it's really just a matter of looks, I personally wouldn't get the nav. What is it? $2k or something like that? Now, I do think that the fact that you're 61 and most likely won't buy another car like this again is something that should be factored in. You've worked long and hard to get to where you are, and you deserve to get something you'll enjoy. I mean, if it's going to be your last car of this type/caliber, why not splurge a little and get all the bells and whistles? You only live once, right?
I will say this. A few years ago when I bought a 350Z, I decided to 'settle' for the Enthusiast model because I didn't feel justified in splurging for the Grand Touring. I wouldn't say I had remorse over it, but I will say that every now and then I'd wish I had gotten the Grand Touring for the leather seats, larger wheels, etc. So this time around when I got my 370Z, I decided to get the Touring so that I wouldn't have to go through second-guessing myself again. Not having to second-guess, post purchase, might alone be worth going ahead and getting the full meal deal. Something to think about anyway.
