Default What's new for the S2000 in Oz this year - Berlina Blue!

Went down to th opening night of the Melb Motor Show last night.

Honda had a Berlina Blue S2000 as one of the highlights of its stand. Interior was all black as was the roof. I didn't notice any other changes,

I think my son may have taken a photo - if so, I'll post it.

Ok, well his photographic skills may not be briliant but he did take the two following shots - you'll get an idea of the colour at least. Personally I thought it looked OK.





Oh, and no windscreen tape!

Looks the same as the US Suzuka Blue.

And it looks like it has orange indicators, not clear! Plus the fake louvers look like they have been painted with the blue too!

The artificial light really brings out the light pearl in it. I like the pics there but I'm not too keen on the outdoor pics ive seen on the US forum.

I saw one this colour in the UK last October doing about 130mph on the M1 heading north out of London one Sunday morning. How do I know it was going that fast? Well I was over the ton when it screamed past being tailed by a Caterham and they disappeared pretty quickly!

I like the colour, it's the same as the new Jazz.

I've seen one at my local dealer - they have one as a demo model.

It looked pretty good and went well with the new style chrome wheels.
