I've followed the sometimes hilarious "which color is fastest" threads. Just for the heck of it I went to Edmunds site to see what the pricing difference between the colors was. Turns out people pay most for Suzuka and least for Sebring. The difference is about $100 with rest in the middle. I have a hunch the cars with the red/black seats probably command more. I also wonder what the manufacturing proportion of each color is. Not looking for a flame war but I thought it was interesting.

I hadn't checked Edmunds for awhile and I think S2k prices have firmed up some since I last looked in May. Could be the summer effect.

 

Interesting? The fuzz in my navel is interesting.

 

What color is it?

 

Just wait for the new 06 colors. Navel Fuzz is the fastest color going!

 

I can hardly wait for 06's. Then I can do another snappy cost analysis on them.

 

Darn! Guess I overpaid $100 for the silver. See me in bankruptcy court.

 

I paid less for my 01 ITR and 01 S2000 because they were yellow. Of course, given the tickets I ended up paying more if you think about it.

I paid a premium for my second S2000, 00 black/red -- because I wanted that color and it was hard to find.

P.S. Never buy a black car.

 

Navel fuzz is always some shade of blue.

 

We knew about this several years ago. Here are a couple of very old threads about the color differential:

At the time, MY2000 GPW commanded the biggest positive difference compared to other colors.

 

I too thought GPW was the most expensive. I also think Spa is the cheapest, though I don't know why. I figured Silverstone, Black, and Sebring would be pretty high and safe since everybody likes them. I figured Suzuka and NFR would be right above Spa.. Interesting!
