Sebring is more rare, was offered for less years, and in general looks better.

Silverstone if you wanna look like everyone else and their mothers.

sebring silver metallic is brighter, thus more attractive IMO. I like bright silvers as opposed to darker ones, personal choice though.

Silverstone (SSM) is metallic and Sebring (SS) isn't. I think Sebring was made in all years between 2002-2006 but don't quote me on that. LOL. There was a chart that had the production numbers of all the color combos but I think it got lost in the upgrade. Hopefully it will come back once the problems are fixed.

Oh and I think Silverstone was 2000-2001, and then 2003-2007, and then they introduced Chicane Silver for 08 and 09. I may not have that exactly right.

but the real question is

AP1 silverstone vs AP2 silverstone

aren't they a TAD different?

My AP2 silverstone is a tiny shade off from my AP1 hardtop
both factory paint

I've come across some people on here saying the same

All Silverstone cars are the same color/shade(from the factory). Same paint code. Exposure to the sun will change it slightly.
I prefer Silverstone over Sebring. Sebring is too bright, IMO.
