just had some friends voice their unwanted opinions about my color choice for my future stook. saying they like the silver/black but think the silver/red looks feminine.. what do ya'll think?

i think it stands out and says this isn't a miata. only thing i don't care for is the carpeted console.. easily fixable (thanks to Rick).

i owne a silver/red s2000, and i think it is an unbelievable combination of colors. it stands out and it rocks. i personally love it and it is not feminine at all. it's not even an issue.

Silver/red? Girl's car, all the way...it's almost Liberace gay it's such a girl's car...

Red is where it's at. Red red red. One of these days you people will accept this truth...it may be hard to swallow, but it's true. The sooner you come to grips with it the better off we will all be.

Red, it's the one and color of the S2000. Every other color pales by comparison...

While Silver and Red was not MY choice, I think its cool. Just remember to take a pic of your friends' faces when your "feminine" car kicks their Z28/Boxter/or whatever other car's ass. I wouldn't let it bother you if you like the combo.

And while i like the red S's, i must disagree and counter greg that silver and black is where its at...thats why there are so many of us!

If you were buying pink you might worry, otherwise ignore them.

What's better than a $90,000 Porsche in the garage?

A garage with three S2K's. Mine would be silver, red and yellow--all with black interior!

Of course, I like white, black, light blue and dark blue but if I could only own three, it would be silver, red and yellow.

pretty good guess on my part eh? Just stick to you colors, I think the Rick console fix would defintely be in order. Otherwise, I think it draws attention. but not too much (ie cops don't see silver cars flying down the highway nearly as fast as they see Greg...errr i mean a red car. =)
