Default GPW sales volume ?

The small number of GPW S2000 sales . Is this because not many were originally ordered or because Honda only made fewer of them to ship over ?

I think it was primary due to low orders. Dealers could order any color they wanted and I remember more than a couple dealers sitting on the GPW cars.

I'm not sure but look at the production numbers, in another tread, not sure which one.

Manufacturers build what people want to buy.

I've never seen the appeal of GPW. Then again, I've never seen the appeal of the tan interior. GPW is nice with the red interior though.

And the answer is:

IMHO, this is one of the best threads on s2ki (and there are a ton of great threads). Honda's motivations notwithstanding, the numbers are what they are.

Listen I cannot agree more that GPW is not one of the better S2000 colors that have been available. However, I see an extremely high amount of members owning them. So, this thread comes as quite a shock to me.

I tend to agree. For some reason GPW became the trendy color to drive on this forum recently. There where other trendy colors before it and I doubt GPW will stay the trend forever.
