Does the S2000 really draw that much attention ?

Girls have dirty minds. The safest color is Berlina driven on highways at night. Speed could be your friend.
Why risk the chance of being gang raped by an SUV full of horney college girls just looking for trouble.
Plan your trips carefully and avoid the heavly traveled roads in daylight.
Better safe than sorry.

a S2K with a hardtop always grabs attention
I was noticing this. Every time I come to a light I see the people beside me staring. Luckily they cant see me staring back

Color really changes people's perception of the car. Yellow works on the S2000, but its still too loud for most. Silver/White/Black are all very classy and give the S2000 an upscale look.

Its all about perception. Buy what makes you happy and the color you like.


Yellow is a loud, attention grabbing color. Silverstone is an "understated" color, yet is still visually interesting in different lighting conditions.

Personally, I don't care for the shade of Rio yellow (preferred Spa, but that is still below Ferrari's Fly yellow...) but it's your car, buy what you like.

This is an interesting question. It's funny, because, when I see another S2K on the road, I immediately start breaking down the parts and the mods that are on the car. WHen the car is stock, it doesn't interest me as much. I get compliments all the time and it's fair share of glances, looks, gawks, etc, especially after I got the wheels and if I'm washed up. The hardtop adds a different look to the car.

I get a lot of stares with mine. I think because it is the only one in town right now,plus the color is pretty rare.

I'm not an attention whore and I used to actually try not draw any attention to myself, but now I couldn't careless either way.
So why do you ask. Get the color YOU like best. You'll be glad you did.

Be sure you see both colors "in the flesh" before you decide, though. Don't base your decision on pictures or color chips in the Honda sales literature.

That's going to be a problem, I can only pretty much look at the cars online and I'm gonna have to base my decision on that.
