Default What color is my car?

How can I tell which silver my car is? The sticker with the color code that is supposed to be on the driver side door jam is not there. Here is a picture of the 2003

Silverstone Metallic or Sebring Silver Metallic

Smarty pants comments:
1. Moonrock.
2. Your Avatar and Profile say Silverstone, so that's what it is.
3. Go to your local Honda dealer and pick up a brochure with the paint samples
4. Buy touch up paint and smear it on your car. If it matches, that's the color. If it doesn't, it's the other one.


Just kidding.

The Sebring silver is light like the popular Mercedes / Audi silver.

If it's the same color as 45% of the cars on the road, it's Sebring.

If it's the same color as 44% of the cars on the road, it's Silverstone.

If it always looks dirty, it's Berlina.

If it gets lost amongst delivery trucks, it's Grand Prix White.

If wasps are always circling over the car, it's Rio.

If yellow jackets are always circling over the car, it's Spa.

If you've gotten a speeding ticket for going 1 MPH over the limit, it's New Formula Red.

If it looks better standing still than it does in motion, it's Laguna.

If it makes girls inexplicably weak in the knees in the good way, it's Suzuka.

If it makes girls inexplicably weak in the stomach in the bad way, you're in the wrong place.

Bwahahaha!!!

I was reading through your post and I was eagerly anticipating the punchline for the Suzuka blue... read it and thought, . Then I looked over at your profile and it all became clear!

Ok, my turn. And I'll be nice to Suzuka, I promise!

If it matches your clean wheels, it's Sebring.

If it matches your dirty wheels, it's Silverstone.

If it matches the lead pipes at work, it's Moonrock.

If you find yourself driving out of your way to avoid puddles and walking in the rain rather than driving (AND it still always looks dirty), it's Berlina.

If you find yourself humming the Speed Racer theme song, it's Grand Prix White.

If wasps are always circling over the car, it's Spa (sorry, I really like this one).

If you're constantly correcting people that it's NOT Spa Yellow, it's Rio.

If you've been mistaken for a Ferrari, it's New Formula Red.

If it stands out, looks good, makes an impression, but yet doesn't match any clothes you wear or any accessories you have a Laguna (former owner of a similarly colored vehicle).

If it makes girls inexplicably weak in the knees and they squeal, "It's so CUTE!" while you cringe and correct them that it's a race car... it's Suzuka.

If you attract teenage boys, but repel teenage (but legal) girls, it's the baby blue of the S2000 CR!!!!
