I was doing some research on Berlina to find out why Honda came up with that name for the black paint color. I know the other colors are named after famous racing tracks around the world but I can't find the answer for Berlina. Maybe its an old Italian race track that is not so popular anymore. Anyone know why Honda picked Berlina as the name for the black paint?

 

Berlina is Italian for "sedan", and a lot of sedans come in black, so I think that's the origin of the color's name. So it's "Sedan Black". Anyone know for sure?

 

I didn't know that Silverstone was a race track in the UK until this thread.
Thanks.

Whoot! More S2K trivia. Thanks S2K4ever. I had no idea Silverstone was a track.

 

For those that are curious, "Spa" is a track in Belgium.
