Default Red S2ks

I have been really setting forth to getting 'possibly' closer to an S2k either within this year or the next 2 years. I just bought the new Civics and sold my previous integras.

I have been consideirng red rather then white since my 3 previous integras were all white and even though I still love white. I for some reason am starting to feel the red s2ks. Also, since it is such a rare color... I want it even more...

However, I was wondering which red would suit me best so I would like to ask for pics stating the year and color.

I notice the new "Formula red" look more redish or lighter then the previous 99-02 (correct me if I am wrong) red. I believe the previous red was milano red?

Please show pics, and your opinionated feedback on the red. I do know red is actually a hard color to maintain compared to white... but its so sexy and more reflective then white. I am in a dilemma with white and red still but I am gearing more red at the moment...

PICS plz!

Thanks

Oh forgot to mention...I did look at the official color thread but would like personal feedbacks from maintence, regrets, such and confirmation that there is a red different in the years throughout.

I am looking for a 02+
I want it mostly for weekend and race so gearing towards 02-04 but then the new red seems to be nicer in my taste which is why I am posting this!

Ah...yes that does help make things easier when I know there is only one formula red but how come 05+ looks or is said to be "new" formula red?

All the reds on the S2000 are called "New Formula Red" in the North American Markets. I know in Europe they have a Monza Red.

Red is a real nice color.

red was my 3rd option

1st Black
2nd White
3rd Red

The S looks great in every color except one (not going to say which one)
