Default Whats with the Suzuka blue interior

I've been looking at S2000s on autotrader everyday, planning on buying in about 3 weeks. I see so many Suzuka blue cars with only 25k-30k miles but it seems like the coloring on the seats wear out pretty fast on this color. Can someone confirm this as being normal or is it just on the cars I see? I'll be satisfied with any color BUT silver, I see more Suzukas on there than silver now, I like the color but interior seems hard to manage....from all these pictures.

Get Wet Okole or Katzkin seat covers.

Mines 22k and looks perfect still so I dunno. Maybe they just took the car for lots of short trips.

I didn't see the S2000 interior listed on Katzkin unless I was looking in the wrong section. On Wet Okole I didn't see the Suzuka blue listed as a color they provide. I heard the Clazzio seat covers from Go Tuning are good but once again no Suzuka blue. I'll have to see if they can maybe do it as a custom color. Unless I do a black and blue two tone.

Why would you want to redo the seats in Suzuka blue?

I'd welcome the opportunity to de-Smurf the interior...

I have the 06 Suzuka with the mostly black interior, but my seats looked great at 22k mi, so I decided to protect them with the Clazzio covers. Yes, these are really covers!

I got all black covers with suede inserts. The blue in the two-tone is way off.

I love the 06 interior - just enough blue to be really unique but not smurfy.

My seats looked perfect and mine had 70k miles when I bought it. I did end up doing a 2-tone though. I now have the black/black suede Clazzio seat covers, black carpet and floor mats, black door inserts, and black dash contorols/bezel trim. Looks way better than the all blue!

My seats show no sign of fading, Best color seats for S2K.
