I'm looking to upgrade my 359 saw. I am watching a few on ebay and have found some 372xp and 570 saws. I understand the 372 is lighter and a bit more powerful. Is the 372 worth the extra $100 or is there little difference in performance?

Your already there that 576 xp auto tune looks like a sweeet deal
 
I've been using a 372xp for about 8 years now, with an 18" bar and I rotate about 10 chains. Original spark plug, perfect running, never been serviced. I cut about 10 cords/year for firewood and cut logs for 2,000-5,000 board feet of lumber per year, plus miscellaneous cutting. It is relatively light and a real joy to use, plenty of power.
 
372
However I replaced my 359 with a 7900 which is even better then a 372 and for less money.
