Looking for an AP2. First color choice is GPW with Rio Yellow a close second. I just missed out on a certified 2006 with 13K for $24K at a dealer in Savannah. Still kicking myself for not seeing the ad on Autotrader sooner.

If anyone is selling or you know someone who is let me know. I've been watching the For Sale forum regularly, but not many GPWs on there.

I'm in Raleigh, but willing to drive/fly for the right deal.

Oh, and I'm trying to sell my 2006 S4 in case anyone is looking for a bad-ass 4 door.

Funny...I'm considering an Audi S4...but as a lease car for my company car...

I have nothing against Rio Yellow...love the color...but GPW is just the way to GO! Everytime I see pics of Saki GT's S2000, bluegas68's S2000, JMac7613's S2000, Mulder's S2000...they look awesome...

GPW is simply a great looking color on our S2000...very "JDM" looking and looks so very classy and sporty all at the same time...

I'll find a link I had to a thread here in s2ki.com where a GPW S2000 owner posted some pics...you may find them entertaining. Best of luck with your S2000 search!!

interesting...i like GPW myself, but i have heard it referred to as looking "like a bar of soap....slow." not my opinion mind you, just hearsay...i especially like it as represented by BadIsBack, with black/red interior

Thanks for the link, Airgate. Honda's always look best to me in white. Probably because of the white 92 Prelude Si. Of course, white being the offical corporate color for racing doesn't hurt either.

Andy, I hear the B5 with mods can be a brutually fast machine. I love the S4, by far the nicest car I've ever owned, but it just weighs so much. It is a complete pig in the corners (could be the driver of course). I miss light tossable Hondas.

You can call the local dealers and tell them what you are interested in, and they can look around for you. When I was looking for my GPW, I had six or seven dealers looking - finally got one in SC that was perfect

Fyi, it used to be GPW was rare, but these days more and more Carolinas people are coming to their senses and getting GPW.

You own a white car. In fact, you traded your NFR for it.
