Default What color is my S2000?
Hello, can anyone please advise what's the color my 2005 s2000? It's said NH-630M (Silverstone Metallic) on the sticker but to me it seems more like a Sebring silver. The car has never been repainted. See pictures.

Looks Silverstone to me.
Sebring is quite a bit brighter.



Sebring in front, Silverstone behind.
I know it doesnt help much, but you can still tell yours looks nothing like the sebring.

I've been bumbling around this site for almost 5 years now and still can't tell the difference between Silverstone and Sebring. Must be the drugs.

Silverstone--darker

Sebring--lighter

Am i right?
Unless his is newer and is Chicane Silver which is darker than Silverstone.

Touchup paint will never match exactly. It will almost always be darker because the paint on your car fades with time after being out in the sun.

Looks like sebring to me. If that's silverstone that's the lightest silverstone I've seen ever in the shade.

I'm surprised anyone thinks that looks silverstone. Seems obviously Sebring to me. My silverstone never looks that bright in any light.
