I'm in Florida (Clearwater), and black is not the best color for this area. We get so much rain during summer and the blazing sun the rest of the time, black is just too difficult to keep clean. My last car was black and I had to wash it non-stop.

Silver is what I chose because it looks clean even when it isn't.

White would probably be okay, but isn't the best looking.

You can't go wrong with red. Easier to keep clean-looking and always looks nice on a sports car.

Blue will either let people know you have new S2000 or make them think you have a nice Z3 (color is close to the BMW blue).

Yellow is hot. I love it. I just wonder if it will go by the wayside like the teal blues of the early 90s. A bit too risky for me.

I never really considered RED. My wife likes the Red and I like the Black interior. Those of you who have seen ALL the S2k's up-close and personal what do you think?

My thinking was the Yellowwould be a bit cooler and more "original" looking than Red. I do not want a Red interior so White is out.

Why not just get the yellow and swap seats with an owner with red interior?! That way you will DEFINATELY have a one of a kind color

Anybody with photoshop skills want to give us an artist rendition of how hideous this would look? (Maybe even some red SS racing stripes as well)

Why to you think AHM never came up with white w/ black interior?
I think that would look extremely classy.

I gotta make my pitch for the black with red interior. Black is tough to keep clean, but black on red has a real batmobile look to it and, hopefully..............vicki vale would be soon to follow. good luck

I e-mailed my salesman and told him to order Spa yellow.
This car is not my daily driver so I wanted a fun color like yellow.
I think if the white was offered with the black interior I may have went with it.

My favorite color is the dark blue I have seen on the web from Europe and Australia. This color is offered with the black top and black interior. Also, British racing green with a tan top would be nice. Perhaps, these colors will be available in 2003.

If you want to say 2002, say blue.
If the wife says no yellow, and it is your money, I vote Spa Yellow!
Black is the worst, there are no details.
How many cars have contrasting color A-pillars?
