Default USA sales brochures

Funny how in the USA, Honda imported GPWs for the entire run but put only one picture of a GPW in all of the years' sales brochures. It appears on page 5 of the my2000 brochure and is a shot of half the rear. Funny huh?

I've always wondered if it is the most desirable color simply because it's the most rare. You would think that if it were already a popular color that Honda would have produced more GPW. Either way, the S looks good in white.

I noticed that too haha. I bought a MY03 brochure to go with my GPW and was disappointed not to see my color in it :-(

Search for-sale S2000's; See how many GPW you find compared to every other color and you'll have your answer.

Better yet, here's something for you (from another thread):

A quick GPW summary:

2000 red interior: 671 out of 9,000
2001 red interior: 440 out of 10,000
2002 red interior: 327 out of 10,000
2003 tan interior: 715 out of 7,800
2004 tan interior: 525 out of 7,500
2005 tan interior: 683 out of 8,900
2006 black interior: 450 out of 5,600

Truthfully I think that GPW is rare because no one wanted them. If it was such a desirable colour Honda would have made more. The most photogenic and appealing colour to me is the Chicanne Silver/Silverstone
