After spending time in both a Premium and a Limited at the Toronto auto show yesterday, the Limited seems worth the premium (see what I did there?). Seats are much nicer and the HVAC on the Premium belongs on a $12k car, it looks worse than the HVAC on my 1st gen Tiburon. Admittedly the toggle switches on the Limited are hardly Mini quality, just cheap plastic with a really cheesy feel, but they look OK.

The Limited seems a decent value for $2k - gets you a spoiler, heated and more attractive seats, the better HVAC, door courtesy lights, vanity mirror lights, fogs, proximity key and start button, silver accent trim. Seat upgrades alone can cost $1000-1500 elsewhere.
