again, it's something that YOU need to decide from within YOU. You have to do what feels best for you, not what others think.. of course this is my $.02.. I used to own a '00 silverstone and when I did, I always knew deep down I wanted a SPA, the first one to come my way I swapped and now I'm happier than one can imagine.

I seriously considered getting a my S in yellow, but then I saw the red/black interior and new I had to have that. So I ended up with the Fastest color they make...Silverstone!!

Seriously, black cars look great for about 5 minutes after you wash them. Then it's over. There is some sort of dirt magnet in black paint.

I vote yellow between the two.

I would imagine yellow cars get pulled over more often. Insurance may be outrageous.

I love color wars.
What's the point of getting a yellow?
They keep modding it w/ cf hood, trunk, top, etc, and try to convert it to black. only rare few painted them back to yellow.
Get what you want. I really wanted suzuka (monte carlo blue, if we had it) but they were out, they were also out of yellow. they had one white, but had miles on it. they had 3 silver and 2 blacks.
I got the black/red interior b/c it just came off the truck and was getting detailed. it looked sharper as well (in my eyes), and great price for it being on the lot.
No regrets what so ever.
My next car, I would go w/ blue or white (evo or g35c), but S2000 looks great in any color. you can't lose.

Insurance doesn't vary with car color. Yellow may catch cops attention more, but it also catches other drivers attention more and prevents someone backing into you if you have a yellow car sometimes. Someone is less likely to make a left turn infront of an oncoming yellow car than a black car.

Yellow attracts a lot of attention, some bad, some good. It looks good also.

Black looks good when shiny. Black gets dirty and dusty very quickly. Had a black car once, five minutes after washing it, it got dusty. Furthermore, on black, you can see all the scratches and swirl marks.
