Default What color should I go for

Yo guys.

I might be getting a 2003 s2000 soon. The color choices that I am having trouble between are silverstone/black and the white/tan. What coler should I go for. Both these colers looks great. If I do get this car I sadly will have to give up my IS300 for it. It's the only way since it will take me forever to pay off another 30000 car. Also there's too many car at my house

If you want to be unique, get the white/tan. Otherwise, silver is the most commonly bought car color.

I HAD THE SAME PROBLEM. BUT IT WAS BLACK OR RED. WENT FOR RED/ BLACK INTERIOR. GLAD I DID ALL VALETERS SAY BLACK IS A VERY SOFT PAINT AND SCRATCHES VERY EASILY. ALLWAYS GETTING COMPLIMENTS ABOUT IT,BEING TOLD RED SUITS THE SHAPE AND IS SEXY.

White/tan is the better of the two in my opinion. We never see white here in Florida, and after going to some meets, there's never a white one present. It'd be nice if I ever got to see a white on in person! Get the white/tan!

There is no bad choice. I've never seen a Grand Prix White / Tan but I know the GPW/Black-Red did nothing for me. I think the tan interior is nicer than the red interior. I really like flat, black interiors. Black interior says to me, "All business."

Silver is the most popular color, but Silverstone Metallic just glistens when freshly waxed and in the sunshine. Photographs do not do it justice. Grand Prix White is much more flat. We have a Taffeta White ''92 Accord and it just looks flat white.

If I had my preferences, I'd choose Monte Carlo Blue or Monza Red Pearl or Imola Orange Pearl or Platinum White Pearl--because they are not available here.

If I were shopping for a brand new S2000 again, I'd again buy Silverstone Metallic/Black.

White is the rarest of the colors. Be different.

That's easy!

If you're single - the color you like.
If you're not single - the color your significant other likes.




PS. Which in both cases is Silverstone, of course.
