a white car will show the lines of a car beautifully...why hide the lines of the S2000 by getting a dark color? only a car with great lines will look great in white...that's why ugly cars look best in black

If you want the slow color by all means go silverstone.

Actually if you polish and wax a white car... it just gets brighter and brighter, I cant even look at mine in the sunlight now.

You could always try Sebring. As an owner of the pure/original silver in the lineup I personally would not, but you could go for the Sebring silver which is the son of the mighty Silverstone. Seems a Grand Prix White and a Silverstone got "nasty" one night back at the factory and we eventually had Sebring added to the line. A nice cross between the two.

Okay, enough fun.

Just get one! Or both!!

I traded my 02 Spa Yellow and the dealer had:
GPW looked frumpy
Red too many other red sports cars'
and they had a silverstone looks classy, fast and shines like a diamond even when a bit dusty.

Get Suzuka Blue...it's so unique. If I get an 04 or 05 in the future it will most certainly be this color.

i am personally partial to the GPW.
that is what i am planning to get in the near future.
anybody know if it might be coming with a different interior option for my05?
i like the tan, and it has grown on me tremendously, but black would be my first choice since my very first car was a 94 integra gs-r which was white with black int.

honda 606-
thanks for the quick reply. i'm new to s2ki but have been visiting this site for years since i've always been obsessed with the s2k. just registered today to be able to post.

read many of your posts probably without you ever knowing over the past few years...
you're a knowleagable dude and i thank you.

gpw and tan is still pretty badass in my opinion and i still drool everytime i see pix. only the tan carpeting gets me a little, since i know it must get dirty real fast. in the end, i'll 'settle' for tan because nothing beats a gpw!
