ok, im thinking of getting an s2000 seeing as i cant afford the benz star, or the porsche or audi emblem....so i went to my dealer, and they only have a yellow one...i figure ok its a nice yellow, and its kinda obnoxious (a definite plus!), but im woried about it fading..have any of your cars gotten lighter in color over the months? im moving to Arizona and would realy hate to have a pale yellow car after 6 mos....any info would be greatly appreciated.. thanks

Most paints will fade in time if you don't care for them. I'd imagine that regular waxing (twice a year as a good rule), with good Carnuba hard wax, will save your paint.

That's a good question, and I'd think lighter colors would be more susceptible to sun damage. Waxing should prevent it though...

Apply several coats of Zaino. It's supposed to have UV protection. Buy a car cover. But above all don't buy a car your not happy with. It will never be special. Personally, I love the color of my sweet Melissa. I get tons of rubber necks and "nice car" yelled from the other lane.
