Nice to see that the car on the turntable looks just like mine.

Yeah, I couldn't get over it when I went to the Houston Auto Show. People were having their picture taken with "my" car, videotaping it, etc; it was funny.

Looks just like my car too the first week I bought it. Those idiots left the spring spacers still in it. If you look closely, the car looks a little raised.

Has anyone else noticed that the S2K does not photograph very accurately in yellow? I think I've only seen a couple of pics posted here that show the right tint and shade of yellow - and those were taken on very cloudy days. When I first saw a couple of yellows at the local Honda dealership, I was fairly disappointed. I was expecting a fairly jazzy yellow, more inline with the pics I've seen posted. Although one S2K was parked inside the showroom, and other was parked outside on the lot, I couldn't get excited about how much the yellow looked like American mustard - both in the shade and in the sun (and I couldn't see any of those metalic flakes that people have mentioned seeing in the paintwork). I must admit, it's still the nicest yellow I've seen on any of the newer cars, and it also seems to be the current "in" color to copy on old Mustangs and VW Golfs.

It's also being copied by other manufacturer's on upcoming models. I saw at least two other cars with very similar paint at the show.
