Not exactly the same results. Many of us do appreciate marginal performance gains, longer drive train life, and no grease stains. But if you're happy with what you're doing now, by all means, enjoy it.
FWIW, I can eat a piece of beef at McDonalds for $0.99, or eat a piece of beef at a good steak house for $99.00. Both offer essentially the same nutritional value. I'm pretty happy I have the option to choose what my priorities are at any given meal.
