Specialized Sirrus Sport vs. Sirrus Comp?

So, in addition to my road bike, I've decided to get a flat-bar bike for neighborhood power/fitness riding.
If you haven't tried one of these flat-bar bikes, you should, they're awesome! It is basically a road bike with flat handlebars and just a little upright geometry. These models both have carbon forks and seatstays!
So, I was at the LBS and rode the Sirrus Sport, but wonder if the Sirrus Comp is worth the extra $370 bucks. They didn't have a Comp in the shop to try. I checked-the specs and there are only a few upgrades that I would be interested in, such as: better shifters, wheels, Zertz insert in handlebars, carbon-wrapped seatpost. Nothing I couldn't live without, but I'm all for buying right the first time, and don't want to regret not bumping up to the Comp.
I am wondering if any of you have a Sirrus, and what you found in comparing the Sport with the Comp.
I appreciate any info you might have.

Here is the link for comparison info:
