You didn't get a clone did you? The more the merrier.

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...

Well, it was the mpg's, the uniqueness of the MINI, and the fun I had on the test drive that did it = P

Cool.. Just wanted to make sure you weren't disappointed later.....

I couldn't agree more. The other stuff more than makes up for it

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.

If you order the same color, you'll be ridiculed.

Take your friend a thank you gift.

As I mentioned, I got CR and he got LB, so we're good. Thanks for all the reassurance.
