Worth upgrading my Synapse to a newer one?

Hey guys. I purchased my '14 Synapse Carbon 105 just over five years ago (with a 60% off retail discount) and it has served me well, but lately I've been thinking about getting a '19 Synapse Carbon Ultegra with Di2. The retail on that is $4,400 but I would also get that discount so around $1900 after taxes. On my '14 I upgraded the wheels (but the front was damaged in an accident) and also the seatpost to the carbon SAVE one. I'm really intrigued by the Di2 and now it's affordable and a few revisions down the road so it's a lot better than the first gen from what I read online.

I would sell an older Scott Speedster for pretty much what I paid for it ($200) and replace the Scott with the older Synapse.

Has anyone upgraded their Synapse for a newer one? Worth it? Di2 over the 105 worth it? Thanks
