It is nice to show up for an S2000 meet with the only car of your color. There are 4 Silverstones in my town and I'm the only Sebring.

Dealers demanded Silverstone because it is a "Safe Color", anyone looking for an S2000 would be happy with silverstone if there were no other options. Unsafe colors are Yellow and Red. Some people refuse to drive those colors. Car manufacturers know this so they produce more in those safe colors (Silver, black, gunmetal, and white) although white was a rare S2000 color, I think that's because white was never a popular sport car color. If half the S2000's were white no one would want white.

The S is really an amazing car. It's almost more impressive mostly stock-- just so pure.

I love the S, but I think stock it looks so simple, especially the AP1's. Oh well, I'm not in it for the looks.

A bone stock AP1 is still far better than the most tastefully Mugenized/Spooned/ASM'd Civic IMO.

Just because its common doesn't mean it isn't an S2000.
Thats like saying they aren't going to draft African Americans into the NBA because there are so many good ones
Well for basketball is doesnt matter what colour they are, if they are good they are good. They get paid to win the game. In this case, we pay for our cars, and never stop paying. I would wanna pay for a colour I like =) Its personal preference, Im just one of the few who will never in my life buy a silver car.

If anyone has actually done their homework they would know that rio pearl yellow is by far the fastest and best handling of the s2000 lineup.Not to mention it requires an owner with above average self confidence and social graces.
