Small bi-level house so going with a 1.5ton AC unit. There is a $1000 difference between the two installed. $6500 vs $7500 plus GST.

I would go with option 2. the two stage furnace will do a better job year round. Leave it on re-circ permanently, runs on level 1. Steps up to level 2 when AC or furnace is running. Continuous air circulation makes a big difference in comfort level.
For a new furnace and AC, those are really good prices but I do not know the GOODMAN line of products at all so that could be why the prices are so low.
One word of advice for anyone getting new HVAC gear,
REGISTER IT WITH THE MANUFACTURER to make sure you get max warranty coverage. It have become uncommon to have to register for warranty but with HVAC it REALLY is necessary or you will get a real short coverage.
P.S> Just Googled Goodman - Doesn't look to good to me on the overall but 4 GOODMAN units, including the GSX13 (number 4) you are quoted on are rated in the top ten for 2018.
