Catalina 42 vs Beneteau 40

My wife and I with our youngest child are looking to set sail next year, beginning with a year or so in the Chesapeake and eventually the Caribbean. We want a tri-cabin with a Pullman and really like the Catalina 42. A M1 decently equipped and in good condition lists for about $70K +/-.

My question is you can get a Beneteau 40 of the same configuration and price that is about 8 years newer, why is that? Is there something inherently better with the Catalina? My experience with both boats places them with similar quality and manufacturing qualities. What am I missing?
