Yeah, Spa Yellow grabs attention big-time. I've owned mine less than a month and I can't count the number of people I catch looking at it. Amazes me. I could drive around in my beater stark naked and not get a glance. 
I've already done a complete walk-through of the car with a couple in a Lowe's parking lot who wanted everything but a test drive. Heck, they probably wanted a test drive but knew better than to ask.
And I know it isn't my imagination that when I'm in the S2000 people drive around me much more aggressively than my beater. Suddenly, soccer moms in Volvos are trying to beat me to the next stoplight. But the funniest are BMW 3-series drivers. They've been sold that BMW is the "performance car" so they're always trying to show off.
And, yeah, teens in their 'tuned' ancient-as-heck Civics, Preludes, etc. held together with baling wire and bubble gum with mufflers that sound like the apocolypse are attracted to my S2000 like bees to honey. They buzz around me but I rarely bite.

congrats on the car...
yellow was the only other color i considered buying. but there was just something about the light of a sunset bouncing off of the suzuka blue that entranced me...
everytime i see a yellow one though - i always smile and give an extra big wave
