In a way, it's crazy. I debated over the silvers for a LONG LONG LONG time. Almost got the Sebring. So glad I didn't.

In one post you say it's too light for your taste and in another post you say you actually like it.

So do you like it or not?

Trading it in isn't going to be cheap, and repainting it won't be cheap either. If you do actually like it, you're better off just living with it. Like someone else said, in a year you might want something completely different.

I like both Silverstone and Sebring... but Sebring was my first choice. It worked out pretty well for me because Silverstone was unavailable in '02.

Now if MCB were an option - no question it would have been my 1st choice.

Thanks, efthimios!

Sebring all the way for me ! The Silverstone is too dark and really looks bad if it is dirty. To me it is a plus if it looks white at times ! I have not seen that aspect yet. Suzuka would be my second choice but it kinda looks purple not blue at times!
The Monte Carlo Blue or the Winning Blue from the RX-8 would be my Dream Choices if only Honda would listen to me and make it so!!!!!
The Sebring would look amazing with the blue top,Suzuka blue seats,Suzuka console , and Suzuka door inserts!!!!

Woah, whatever you do don't get it repainted! A quality job that won't leave the inside of the engine compartment, doorjambs, etc. a different color is going to cost many many thousands of dollars, and even more when you try to sell a repainted car.

Anyway, sorry to hear that the color difference is so severe as to completely spoil your enjoyment of the car. I won't try to convince you that Sebring is nice as you obviously don't like it, but I will say it's quite inaccurate to say it's anywhere close to metallic white. Park your silver next to any standard "silver" car- a Taurus, a Mercedes, whatever, and park a white car next to that and look real close. My car is sitting in the garage next to my dad's silver '97 Mercedes (a car you would certainly call real silver), and half the time the S2000 Sebring actually looks darker, depending on how the light is. IMO, what makes the sebring *look* a lot lighter than other silver cars is the contrast with the black top and windshield tape.

Suzuka don't look purple. I love my baby, even though people tease me about getting a baby blue car. It's all good.

That shot really makes me like the Suzuka.
