Default Production numbers by color

Do any of you know how many of each color are produced. I am looking for a white '03. All I seem to find at the dealers is silver, silver, and silver. Some have black or red. Blue seems pretty rare, as does yellow. Any assistance would be great.

Oh, BTW, the dealer out here (Gardena Honda) says they will give me an "internet special" of only $2500 over window, instead of the normal markup of $6000. I hung up on her right away. Cars direct is only $500 over sticker.

Should I go out of state? Are there dealers in So Cal that are at or below sticker?

03's at or below sticker may be a liitle hard to find right now.You may be able find a better price if you can wait until spring of next year.The biggest mark ups are always when the new model year arrives at dealers which was sometime around mid October of this year.Good luck with your search

Only about 10% of the S2000s hitting the dealers over the last couple months were white.

There's been a fresh white / tan sitting in the showroom at Vinart in Allentown, PA - I guess that'd be a helluva break-in drive, though........

why'd they get rid of the white/red...IMO, that was real dumb on Honda's part, they should've at least still offered red interior as an option too...

p.s. wtf??? tan??? at least offer white with black leather....

The internet department at Norm Reeves Honda in HB asks sticker plus accessories, but they quickly came down to sticker when I told them I thought that was a rip-off.

Robertson Palmdale Honda also asks sticker plus accessories.

Still looking for someone to match that Chicago dealer that offers $29,750 in the paper :-)

I doubt that is true for a convertible. I would expect the beginning of winter to be the cheapest time of year to buy a convertible, NOT spring.

gernby....I said this for two reasons...1..the person who posted the first post lives about 12 miles south of me in California and my comment was directed to him due to his location so waiting for winter really has nothing to do with it out here(i.e 85 degrees today one week before Thanksgiving)...2..everyone want's the NEW model when they first arrive even though the S has changed very little over the years.That is why I suggested waiting until spring.Perhaps I should say wait six months after October and forget about the word "spring" altogether.
