Not sure why you went the copy method to begin with... but it is your choice. If you are a slew of applications you'd like to have installed by default that aren't... just edit:
/vz/template/centos/4/i386/config/default.list
and rebuild your cache. Don't forget to rebuild your cache every so often anyway so it will grab all of the updates and create fully updated VPSes. Of course, you can do it however you want to but that's how I do it. 
I guess if you have done a lot of work on configuration, third party app installation, and populating your apps with data (especially MySQL), the copy method would be the way to go.
For making exact copies, I would recommend rsync with the -avSH flags... even works over the network via ssh if desired. rsync is also the preferred way to migrate a VPS from one machine to another.
