I fail to see the significance of a FAS TEST, whatever FAS means. Isn't that a screening test for colon cancer or something?

Everybody already knows that blue is at the short end of the visible light spectrum and there is an inverse relationship between wavelength and energy. It's a simple principle of physics. The blue light emitted by the Suzuka S is higher in energy that any other color. The best argument that I can make for Sebring is that it may provide a reasonable reflection of the Suzuka as the higher-energy color flashes past at the speed of light.

Apparently there must have been a speck of dust on your glasses or you were simply distracted before you had a chance to finish reading the license plate. Clearly the plate says FASTEST.

Suzuka is nice, but Sebring is the fastest. Now even the State of New Jersey agrees.

Well, DUH. The choice is obvious.

(not that you can really make a mistake. )

man you guys are funny. "you are my boy blue!" damn i gotta watch that movie again.

as the color goes here are my thoughts

yellow - taxi/cop magnet
red - never even thought about this color at all
silverstone - too similar to the color i have (dessert silver rsx)

blue - somewat different from other which i really like that's why i have dessert silver rsx. but blue interior just kills it.
sebring - i saw one recently on the road before i even thought of purchasing and looked very sharp and clean. also now i think of it as a Sexy girl Next door with a Red Dress. lets put it that way.

well i made a choice yesterday cuz i had to and came down.... drum roll.....



Sebring silver with black and red interior. car is getting transported from one dealer to other either today or tomorrow and picking it up on friday morning.

reason why i picked sebring is silver you can't really go wrong with it. i think i will regret having blue one day. reason is that my friend used to own 2000 blue si. it is different tone but blue was getting old. i like the laguna blue for s2000 but can't wait that long. i wanna enjoy s2000 during summer. there is no reasons to put pics up when i pick it up but i will see if i get excited enough i will post some pics.

We went on the wine drive with the New England group.

We had two Suzukas, two black, one red, and the rest were Silverstone or Sebring. Total of about 13 cars and that means 8 of them were in the "silver family"

Go with the Suzuka!

Oops, I'm too late, the choice was already made. Well maybe if you hurry back to the dealer, you can trade UP to a Suzuka!

Stay with the girl next door in the red dress. She'll still be beautiful after the others have been long forgotten.
