Okay, I'll bite.
The 5-sp will enhance what otherwise is a sleep-inducing driving experience with the '99 LPT auto (IMHO, anyway). I'd miss the seat heaters very much for six months a year, and not at all for the rest (during which I lust for the vented seats, which I don't have).
An SE 5-sp is RARE. I tried to find one for half a year with no luck, the only 5-speeds we got here were stripped models.
You'd get more driving involvement and better mileage. You'd miss the acceleration and the lack of worry about the DI casette.
That's about all I can think of. Do you know for certainty that this other car has been properly cared for?
