Default Apologies to '02 RED Interior S2000 Owners. . . (Pics)

After the local Honda dealer finally received their Sebring Silver with Red interior, they gave me a call to come and take a look. They were not thrilled to see so much red. . .and neither was I, at first! But I tried to remain calm and took a seat in her. . .It's a whole lotta RED!!! But it's true what others have said, it grows on you! It's a very BOLD statement and looks somewhat exotic! So, I apologize to the RED interior '02 S2000 owners for making my comments in the past. It is very nice indeed. . .

A little bit of a difference. . .


Hmmm. . .still a bit of a difference. . .


Alright, there's quite a bit of difference. . .


Holy Mother of GOD. . .that's alot of RED. . .


A driver's perspective. . .AHHH, my EYES. . .the GLARE. . .



Alright, I hope that clears up everything. . .the guy that was supposed to buy this S2000 decided to wait for their next S which is the Suzuka Blue. . .hmmmm. . .

I literally had to squint on that 4th pic. Ouch!

I wonder if the "pink factor" is going to come into effect once it's out in the sun for a while.

No disrespect to those owners with all red interior, I do not think this would grow on me. I would rather all black than all read.

Silverstone/Red (seats) is much easier on the eyes IMO.

Did you notice that the wind screen is still black and so are the seat backs and mesh in the head area?

If you are going to go all the way with the red, do it. The little black now seems to make it look really awkward to me.

I wasn't too thrilled with the blue interior either. Black is my preference, but to each his/her own.

The back of my seats (MY2000 Silver/Red) are red! Why did they change all the plastic panels to red, then change the seat backs to black?

I'm not sure I'd ever get used to this either. Very happy to own a Silverstone with red seats, door panel inserts and carpet (ok, not so thrilled about the carpet!).

I'm out of the outcasts that showed no mercy towards the new red interior ... And I'm still standing my ground, that sorta red is too much for me to breathe ... Help! I'm choking in a sea of red obsession.

I dunno folks, I think the red will sell quite well to a certain category of customer - namely brainless dolly birds whose Z3 is due for a trade-in. LOL
