Default Soon to be S2K owner, questions...

Sup guys, let me start by introducing myself. I'm currently looking to buy a 2005 S2K, my dealership has 1 suzuka blue and 1 white for sale. I've been a mustang guy for awhile, I've had a 99 GT, sold it, and got me a 2004 Mach 1. Unfortunately, I got in a wreck and totalled it about a month ago. I love mustangs to death but I feel like I need to step into something different. After test driving a S2K, I knew it was the perfect car. I'm pretty set on this car and hopefully I'll be purchasing it by the end of the week.

Questions.

1) I live in GA, but for some reason, both the S2K's at my dealership have front license plates. I HATE THEM! I will have them take it off if I purchase the car, but what would I do about filling the holes?

2) I'm still undecided about which color would be best. The suzuka(sp?) blue/blue or white/tan? I love both so help me out guys...

3) Anything else I should know before buying this car? any known factory problems? I've always had a Ford so buying my first Honda, I have no doubt the quality will be top-notch.

Thanks alot!

1. The cars come with two little plastic nubs, about 1/2 inch by one inch each, that fill in the screw holes for the front license plate holder. If your dealer throws them out, as mine did, you can buy them online for $3 apiece. That's what I did, and my car is much prettier now.

2. White/tan might be a bit cooler, which might matter in Georgia. (Unless the Suzuka has the blue top, then that might be cooler, at least when the top is up). White will be more visible to police. A lot depends on how much you like blue.

3. No problems that should prevent you from buying the car. Hanging out here you'll know what to be on the lookout for.
