Default Decisions, decisions... I need some advice

I ordered a suzuka blue s2000 and I am told the wait will be three weeks. I could have driven away with a 2002 silver/red model. Now I am beginning to doubt my choice. I am worried that the blue is too trendy, and might lose its appeal in the future. I get the feeling that the silver is a more classic color. The only problem is I find the red interior in the 2002 model is overpowering as it now covers the dash as well as the seats and center console. What do you think????

Personally, I don't care too much for the red interior. I wouldn't worry too much about what's trendy or not...I'd purchase the color combo I like the best.

i would prefer the silver/red instead of the blue. even though the new red looks kinda tacky, the blue is even worse.
i cant stand the blue leather and all blue interior.

Hmmm... This is tough! I am leaning towards the blue, because I like it. The other consideration is the three week wait. It is killing me! Thanks for you input.

Go with the color that will make you happy. Keep in mind that the 3 week wait may be inconsequential if you're planning to keep this car for many years! I'd hate for you to get bored/sick of the car down the road if you make a hasty decision now.

Just my 2 cents...

Only buy EXACTLY what you want. Shamu is right, imagine owning something close to what you want.
