Still debating but so far I am thinking red... the thing is... its kind of hard to find at the moment... I am shooting for 02 or 03 since price would be more avid and realistic but would love an 04.

Yet...
03 is the last of the 9-10k rpms... and imo... the cleaner look rims but then 04+ is the F22... ahhhhh. I need to find somone to let me test drive in all honesty. hahaha

F22 or F20, 03 or 04... erp...
04 interior I like more but 03 you really get the s2k feel since the higher rev.

Uh huh...
I don't see how that aids me on a quest to find an s2k but cool I guess... haha

Actually I find that rather weird but its for racing so understandable.

What a poor s2k being ruined on the outside!

BACK TO TOPIC!

Yes, its a replica with 6+ hours of fitment labor. Luckily, Im pretty good with bodywork, or else it would cost 4 times more thna the lip!

"New Formula Red" was the replacement for Formula Red for the NSX in is early years. I remember cuz I wanted an NSX and wanted the Formula red.

As far as an 03 NFR here's mine. Different color depending on light. Also the second pic is fuzzy cuz someone else took the pic.



Yep. Formula Red was used on NSXs from '91 to '99. The '99 Zanardi NSXs and regular NSXs '00 and later are New Formula Red. The picture in my sig shows my '91 Formula Red NSX next to my '00 New Formula Red S2000.

Now... are those all your cars? haha because if so... then wow... nice collection, very nice but your missing a Integra Type R

As for the red difference, its not too accurate for me since the s2k is in shade while the nsx isn't so much.

But through speculation... I have to say the NSX is a lot brighter and dunno... looks nicer while the red s2k looks darker... not as sporty but possibly not fade as easily to orange hahah The s2k and miata's red look similar while the nsx reminds me of a supra and ferrari red.

but again, speculation according to an far and inaccurate picture

Thanks

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
you know white is the most rare of all s2k colors so you may want to rethink your reasoning for getting the red. plus you know you love white already.
