What I would like are:
- keyless entry and ignition, gimmicky, quirky sensors, meh or fantastic ?
- leather and alcantara - does it offer more durability or better looks
Questionable:
- security system - does the Premium not have anything other than remote locking and unlocking?
What I won't miss:
- heated seats, nice for colder winters so its a nice to have but won't miss it
- heated mirrors - same
Any thoughts on whether this is worth $1.6k extra?

Less is more for me, so I'd opt for the Premium... But I'm not your average car shopper, so I wouldn't follow what decision I'd personally make.
If you're going to daily drive the car and really use the car every chance you get for several years down the road... Then you may want to get the Limited. You don't want to question yourself on why you didn't get the option you could've opted for in the beginning.
A $1,600 difference makes the decision that much more forgiving, so don't stress yourself out much... I wouldn't worry about the price difference in this case. Choose what you will appreciate, and then don't look back.
Although, after I re-read your opening post... It seems to me that perhaps you would be more comfortable with going with a Premium (less options) since you're coming from an economy car. I have a feeling you won't feel bad one bit after owning the lesser model of the two... Still a fantastic car, but I'll leave the final say to you, of course.
All the best.
