Default Non-stock colors

Hey guys. I was flipping through some of my old car and driver magazines while I was taking a number 2, and it got me thinking: Besides the stock color options for our cars, what color would you want your S to be? Ideas could be mild to wild.

For me, I would love to have had a british racing green exterior (ala Aston Martin), with a tan interior. I think that color combination is very classy, as it also pays hommage to, who would've guessed it, british cars of the past. (Also, if anyone would want to photoshop that for me, I would be greatly appreciated )

So s2ki, what would you pick?

A guy recently painted his S deep impact blue (from the new mustang) and it looks amazing. Lexus has a pearl white that would look great too.
I am a fan of almost every oem color offered for the edm and jdm market- the usdm market got shafted with the generic colors.

IMO dark green, or any green, won't look great on an s2000. green just isnt sporty enough

Laguna blue

I had my S painted pure pearl white and I absolutely love it. Although at times I wish I had just gone GPW. Can't go wrong with GPW

Don't usually participate in these kinds of posts but I think Moon Rock or Pearl White with mid brown leather interior are the classiest colour combinations, neither of which have ever been available in NA that I am aware of. I agree with an earlier poster that Honda went brain dead when it chose the limited pallete of colours and colour combinations available in the NA market.

For some reason I'd want an olive/military green or a non metallic grey, non metallic grey would prob take the cake tho.
