Why is it so hard to find a GPW S2K?

White 21%
Black 18%
Silver 17%

Keep in mind that most fleet vehicles, work trucks, vans, government vehicles, etc. are also white. White is the cheapest & easiest color to spray.

"Keep in mind" that green was the most popular color in the 90's.

Silver was the most popular color from 2000-2007.

White IS the most popular color NOW and has been for the last three years.

Fleet vehicles, work trucks, vans and government vehicles are basically irrelevant.

Having been watching the market for the past year, I see plenty of GPW s2000s. You just need to travel and accept the fact you'll pay more for it.

I'd put the GPW premium of 1-2g depending on the model year; it's the same reason why CW ITRs are more desirable:

Took me 3 or 4 months to find mine, but I knew I wanted an '07 because of the color combo. I almost gave up the search but then found one locally and jumped on it!

GPW- Just another nice color. Personally, I would NOT pay a premium for any color. I would buy the cleanest low milage S2000 that I could find for sale at a reasonable price.
Be honest now, doesn't this stratagy make much more sense?
