to me white is the settlest color. if you're looking to put a body kit on your car, white is the best choice (to me white shows the best)..
but there is one thing i don't like about a white s2k tho, after u washed it and DETAILed it, it doesn't show how much time i spent on it =( .... black is the best color to detail with!!!!

I love my Berlina Black, but when I first saw GP White I liked it, then I saw a GP White with a Hardtop and I loved it. White would be my second choice next to Berlina Black. Don't like the Tan interior though.

I love my white, but it also took me almost 6 months to find one. They like stated above are only 8% of production, I have always been told that white and red has been japans racing heritage color and as honda sells a lot of white's at home and does not feel that the US has the same love of the combo.

Truthfully white is not the best for bodykits in my mind, the silver/blue cars look the best. Only one thing I would trade my car for and that the orange they use on the NSX/S2K with black interior, but I have very weird tastes.

easy: white is the traditional honda type-r color. the s2000 is kinda an unofficial type-r, just like the 835CSi wasn't an M car...

When I got my S2K I only wanted white. I agree that it is one of those colors that you either love or hate. As for the maintenance I have found it to be less demanding than some of the darker color cars that I have owed.

After a wash/wax the s2000, in any color, looks great. I'd say if the car was "dirty" then a silver or white would look best.

I'd trade in my 02 yellow for any year white BUT ONLY with red interior. WHite's the best color, I should have gotten that but I love attention and yellow seems to bring it enough.

thanks for the feedback from you former SPA owners.. I too am just having a hard time dealing with the blue interior ? I'm hoping it will grow on me, but for now, that is the one hinderance that leads me to yellow.
