Base v. SE Wagon

I am in the market for a new wagon. I am trying to decide between the base (with premium package and auto) and the SE. As far as I can tell the difference is that the SE is $2,000 more expensive and has the V6 engine and an auto-dimming mirror. My question is this: Is the more powerful engine worth $2,000? I know part of it is subjective and has to do with how much power one really "needs", but another question is reliability. Which engine is more reliable? Will the base need to use the turbo more often and therefor shorten its life expectancy? I plan on keeping this car for 5+ years. Any help would be appreciated!
