The S2000 is available in all of the "classic" sportscar colors except one,....British Racing Green. Why do you think that is? Maybe because so much of the S2000 design was influenced by the Lotus Elan that Honda decided to downplay the British connection? Strange, the engine revs like a Ferrari and even has a Red valve cover ala' the Testarossa (Red Head). Why wouldn't Honda pay a subtle tribute to Lotus with a British Racing Green over Saddle Leather S2000?

Another tribute (like the red valve covers to Ferrari) would be the shape of the Shift Nob. Watch the classic F1 racing movie Grand Prix and note the Shift nobs. Honda wanted to recreate the single seat formula car for the street with the S2000.

 

If Honda had done the BRG thing, they probably would have been accused of copying the Miata, rather than paying homage to the Brits. I would have rather they imported the Monte Carlo blue to the U.S.

 

If they had green, you could make your very own traffic light...

red, yellow, green...

sorry, bored at work.

Me too!

Always loved blue because of the Shelby Cobra: Guardsman Blue w/White LeMans Stripes.

Awesome!

 

Me three! I would take the Monte Carlo Blue in a heartbeat

 

As much as I like the Monte Carlo blue as well, the green/tan combo would look fantastic. Or red/tan and black/tan for that matter.

 

The Green would look nice.. But, I would trade my yellow in on the Monte Carlo blue in a heartbeat.. Blue always has been my #1 color..

 

Hey shingles If the imported the blue we would have
Red,White and Blue
Which is much better than Red, Yellow and Green
just a thought

 

A pearl white on the S2000 would look sweet, IMO. The racing white, well, kinda makes it look like a rental.

Sorry if I offended any white S2000 renters, er, owners

 

Green would be interesting although not fond of green.
