if you like a sebring silver then get that... i dont think you should ask other members here on what color you should get. it is your car and it will be best if you decide.
however...if you ask me, of course i will say get white.

get what colour makes YOU feel the best inside.. i orig. had bought silverstone 2 years ago as SPA could be attained at the time. I compromised.. Even when I had my silverstone I always longed for a SPA.. as soon as a SPA came up I jumped at it, sold my silverstone and now I couldn't be happier .. so my advice is do what feels right inside, get what you REALLY want now..

Our car looks great in any of the colors! You can't go wrong. But when you do choose you will find yourself identifying with all your brothers and sisters of the same color. S2ki color wars are great fun! Good luck in your quest!

It seems like

Red - fades over time and can be hard to match color if you need painting
- draws police
Blue - can be hard to match color any time if you need painting
Yellow and White - show dirt easily, yellow draws police (I know this because mine is yellow)
Black - shows any surface imperfections and requires keeping clean to look good
- looks great when it is cleaned and waxed

Have I insulted anybody yet?

Silver - seems to be the color to get if you are imore nterested in driving than cleaning.

I agree with either color silver as it does not show dirt like the others. I've had many color cars and I think I like silver the best! Here pick a color . . www.TBAS2K.com

white was another color i was looking at, but all they have at the dealer right now is a red..i told myself i would never get a red car...unless it was a custom red..right now im leaning toward sebring silver, silverstone, and grand prix white..are the 04 models offerng an all red interior? ive seen a GPW with tan interior..not really feeling it because its a mess to take care of..oh and also...this was just to get an insight on what colors are more popular on the road.. without a doubt im going to get something that reflects me...but i wanna know about the ones already owning s2ks from their standpoint!

get the color that first pops into your head when you think about a s2000.
