Actually it was not even a conscious decision for me. I knew exactly what I wanted to begin with....RED.

One of the problems that I have is that I always know exactly what I want, but it's usually not what everyone else wants.

It's not always easy to know exactly what you want. I usually wind up going on some wild goose chase looking for some part that no one has.

On the other hand, when I buy a car, I tell the sales person what I want and then we discuss financing. It doesn't take long and the sales person has it made. They don't have to do any work, I've done it for them before I get to the dealer's.

I still remember a 45 minute conversation that a lady had in a restaraunt with her waiter. She was hungry, but she wanted the waiter to tell her what she wanted to eat! She could not make up her mind to save her soul.

Good luck with your decision. I really love my red S2000. Everyone has a silver car, but if you really want a one of a kind, get a white one.

I know how you feel. I'm getting ready to buy a 03' S2000 and I had a hard time choosing between black and silverstone... If you don't want to wash your car every day than go for the silver, but if washing your ride is something you enjoy than go for the red... Few things look sweeter than a clean red or black S... Bottom line - no matter which color you choose you'll be happy. Oh, and I'm going with the silver... Personally, I like the low-key look and I'd rather spend my time driving than washing...

Good luck...

Drew

Only real Italian sportscars. English were green, German were silver, etc. etc.

That's one of the problems with red, everybody thinks that.

Get RED !!!!

I got red since it shines up really nicely, but is easier to take care of than a black car.

Depends....

If you want to attract cops, go with the red.

Personally, if I were getting silver, I'd get it with the black interior. You're getting a racing machine right? So make it look like a machine. But you may think that's really dull. That's what makes the world go around.

(Then again, mine is actually blue/blue.)
