MINI Cooper S Checkmate?

Are they worth it?
better than a regular cooper s?
Or should i settle for a basic mcs?
But the checkmate has caught my eyes as well as any mini cooper!

It is all just personal preferences. The checkmates have the extra graphics, sunroof, chrono pack and in most cases the seats and wheels in the unique design. But there is nothing performance wise different.
