I think it's safe to say there are going to be a few differences Speed/MPS. Our models are not the same. There is only one MPS version sold in the UK. Our model is only 256BHP, although the engine is the same, I believe the difference is solely ECU controlled. Damn, I need a remap. We also have indicators on the front wing, which are not on the US model, but are compulsory for all UK registered vehicles. We also have the flat rear lights, rather than with the bulge, so there may well be other differences. There was never a two tone leather option here.
My VIN starts JMZ not JM1.
My model is GG82L not GG12L.
If what you are saying about the digit that represents the year is correct, then why is my digit 0?
With regard to colour/rarity, Black Cherry and White were not sold in the UK, so Titanium may not be the most rare globally, even if it is in the States/Canada.
I heard some time ago that only 700 were ever sold in the UK, but I can't verify that at the moment, I can't even remember where I heard that. If that is accurate, the UK market would have little impact on global stats, but the MPS is sold in many countries and may only be available in four colours elsewhere.
Given that the cars are not identical (Speed/MPS), they should probably not be treated collectively anyway.
