Hopefully it's more than the mpg that convinced you. I have an S and I'm getting closer to 28. Mostly highway, and I do tend to drive a bit aggressively, however...
If I could convince all my friends and family to buy a MINI I would.
I wouldn't even worry about having the same type or color because as lurch70 mentioned, I have never seen an exact match... Ever.
I have been to some pretty major MINI events (MOTD, MTTS, local rallies and car shows) and have yet to see a MINI just like mine.
