I've seen them on the internet - but this is the first time I've spotted a mix & match colour scheme in the flesh.




Full red interior - VGS and Navigation - but a blue roof??? I'm very undecided on this.

What do you think? Is this option in UK - would you do that?

This was taken at my local dealer today - which is always an interesting place to go for S2000 or NSX spotting. Honda system is to have only a few dealers supplying and servicing S2000 and NSX - for example in Kobe City (1.5million people) this is the only one - so in their workshop 50% of the cars at anyone time are these models and of course there is always a new one being prepared for delivery.

I think it looks pretty cool! I could definitely live with it, although I prefer my 'Classic' silver/red.

Haven't been near the dealer since I bought it - But that sounds like a very bright idea!

I'm not sure about the blue roof either, but had red leather been an option with red paintwork in the UK I'd have bought it in a shot!

I saw some pic's on a Platinum white VGS the other day - very nice! I wish my local dealer were so adept at S2000 servicing though!

I like it in the picture ! Not sure how it would look outside on the road though...
Red leather with red body would look good - I love blue leather with blue bodywork !

No, I can't say I like this too much. Mind you, I'm a bit conservative in my tastes. I still think that the all blue and all red interiors are just too much.

You bet! My wife drew the line at the rather natty (I thought) matching red leather wallet
