Default Trying to decide on color...

As I stated in my first post, I should be picking out my S2k this weekend. The problem is that I'm not quite set on color yet. I want something that won't fade, since I live out here in SoCal. I love white, but it only comes with tan interrior now. My past experiences with tan interrior prove it to be the worst possible color for staining. Then I started to consider suzuka blue... but I'd have to special order one. That's fine, except I can't see the interrior before purchase. On the 05 models, is the carpeting also blue... or just the leather seats?

I have a funny feeling I might just end up with a third red car.

Don't order a Suzuka without seeing one. I hated the interior when I first saw it in photos, but when I saw it in real life, it looked awesome. I've had my car just over three months, and love the color. It gets lots of compliments, too.

Here's a pic with the seats removed, so you can see the carpet:

^^ that actually looks really nice. I've seen the s-blues from a distance, but never the interrior. How is it for wear? Do footprints and dirt start to show up on such a light color?

If I had to buy another S2000 I would get Suzuka Blue.

We have a '01 Silverstone, my first choice in 2001, and an '05 Suzuka, my first choice since 2002, when it came out. I hated the blue interior on the '02 because it has silver trim that I didn't like. Now I love the interior but there's less silver trim. I have noticed in the 7 months since I got the '05, that the blue leather will get dull looking and needs some leather conditioner more often than the black interior in the Silverstone. I use Meguires. It really makes it look nice and new again.

That's an awesome color, too bad they don't offer it stock. Nice lip too, Airwalker?
