Default The Most Unique S2000 of All

I've never seen one. Well, I mean a real one. I've seen pictures. I've heard about them. I asked my dealer and he said, "We never order them." When I went shopping for the "S" it was what I wanted - I looked everywhere. Not to be found.

Not Black, Silver, Red or Yellow. White - I'm talking about a white S2000. My dealer said that they only come with red interior and nobody likes them. I disagree. I think white would look cool. Living in a hot climate, I really like white cars - they're cooler. Not this way - ...but, this way -

Anyway, I ended up with my second favorite color - silver. My truck is silver. They match. I'm keeping it, but I still think white is a neat color...and it's the most unique S2000 of all!

There are a couple of White S2000s around here and they look very nice. I like that they use the racing colors of Japan - white and red. Though they are cool (and cool ), they can be tough to keep clean. I find that the A/C in my car has no trouble keeping the cabin comfortable in my red car, even in the midst of our sub-tropical summer.

BTW, white is the least common color.

Looking at the pic's of the white, it never did much for me. But when I finally saw a white one (from Maryland I think it was) at the hotel in Knoxville for S2K Asheville Days, it looked great!

After seeing all the different colors up close and from every imaginable angle, they all look good on the Stook. Must be the car istelf.

According to Hyper Rev magazine, black is the least common color in Japan, by far.

White may be unique, but red is the best s2k color.

I bought my VGS Black/Red in Tokyo because it was the least color of any S2K I saw on the roads. White in Japan is probably the most color I've seen but then again, it is still one of my favorite choices for a car as well. If only I knew that White was rare in Sydney, I would've opted for White/Red instead of Black/Red though it's still an uncommon sight. Cleaning either is just as time constraining with the same efforts, it's just good to be rare.

It has to be one of the favorite colors in So Cal. I see more Red and Black than any other. Mine is Silver, and there are lots of those as well.
