Car looks Great!

 

Car looks awesome Jay... You goin to the Christmas Tach Meet??? Hope you do I cant wait to see it in person

 

DUde that color is nice!

 

I like this color, but i don't understand why people are jumping all over it now after my buddy took his S up to IA. It just makes me feel that his dream color and his unique idea is just becoming less and less special. Not that he did it for other people, but his goal was to have a car that was unique, and one that he loved, and half of that goal is now diminishing.

There was apparently someone that went half way through a laguna seca change, but ended up going back to berlina before he did it (so i hear), but after his color change, this is the second laguna seca S that has popped up. Not hating on the car because i love it now, and I loved it before when it was yellow.

If i am mistaken and there is someone who had a fully resprayed laguna seca S before July of 2009, then please let me know so i know better. I always heard of someone claiming that there was one up in the North East, but no one ever produced pictures.

Haha, sorry for the lame post that comes off as being overly emotional. But, hopefully some people can understand where I am coming from. I heard my friend talk and talk about doing laguna seca as a one-off paint job, and after A LOT of work, my friend, his/my friends, and I busted ass helping one another to get this thing done so that everyone else in this automotive community might enjoy his hard work at Import Alliance.

Mag blue with that color does look bad ass though! Great job, i am sure the AE will come out great as well.

 

WTF YOU DIDNT MAKE HOMECOMING!

 

There was a member in Chicago that's had Laguna Seca for a long time. Laguna Seca is not a new color and is a factory color. If your buddy was trying for something that nobody else had, he should have made a custom color, not replicated an almost 10 year old OEM color.

Jay...I like the color choice. Hope to see you at Homecoming!

nice fellow Georgian! color looks great! not a huge fan of the fenders. imo i would have painted the stock fenders so i could be interchangeable also. sweet ride! what shop painted it?

 

I agree that it isn't something too terribly unique simply because it is a very outlandish factory bmw color that has become quite popular in the Honda world recently. I just find it weird that there were no laguna seca s2000s over the span of the last 9 years (that many knew about anyway), then all of a sudden there are 3 that pop up in a span of 5 months after my friend completed his.

Thanks for the information about the one in Chicago. I am sure my friend didn't think it existed because a while back when he was thinking about painting his car this color, he made a thread asking if anyone has seen a laguna seca S. No one was able to provide sufficient evidence/pictures, and the verdict was that it was something that hasn't been done (or at least done, and shown to the Honda community).

 

^ Well it had and there's not much you can do to a 10 year old car that hasn't been done before. The exception is one off things or parts that are brand new in production.
