Not gotta have, but parks easier and less touchy at higher speeds

Yes, no and maybe - at low speeds/parking lot you would work a little harder without PS but at high speeds you might find that with PS the car tracks better.

We have PS purchased in the convenience package where it is a bargain. As a straight up option I don't know if I would buy it.

If you have an opportunity - test drive both.

One vote for no EPS; can't speak to highway speeds but parking and slow speed maneuvering are not a problem with the standard steering IMHO.
