U talking about Sebring Silver? Yes, it is silver. Under the sun, it may look white.

Yep, a new silver for '02. Under certain light it does look almost white. I don't know what it is- not enough metallic?; too light?; too flat? Whatever it is, I prefered the Silverstone or ever the satin silver they use on the Civics. I was originally going to get silver for my 02, but when I saw it in person I knew it wasn't the color for me.

Sebring Silver is the new color for 2002. I assume it has replaced the Silverstone which had more of a slate tint to it. I suppose from a distance in bright sun Sebring could look a little like white, but it's definitely it's own shade.

Different strokes for different folks, I guess.

Sebring Silver and Grand Prix White are as different as Night and Day...... I have a white, and have had it parked side by side with the sebring silver. Grand Prix White is not your typical white....it is the whitest white I have seen on a car to date....BRIGHT!

Sound like an advertisement for bleach.

Hey yeah, it does! Maybe a new marketing slogan for the Grand Prix White. Thanks.

I definitely dont like the new silver. I have a Silverstone and to me there is no comparison as it doesnt look like every other silver sports car. The silverstone is distinctive just like the car.
