Sebring with Red interior

When I think of a convertable sports car.......
I first see the red interior and silver

Once you've had black you never go back

This is why everyone gets pissed when they come out with the cool color options in Japan only and we're stuck with 10 shades of gray in good ol' conservative USA.

IMO, Black and Silver is for luxury cars, limos and trucks, not sports cars.

Anyway, if you have to pick a non-color, go with Silver, at least it doesn't disguise the S styling like black does and you won't be reduced to an hyper-anal, detailing loon trying to keep swirls from showing.

I did.

She said get yellow.

If you dab the car dry with microfiber, you can avoid swirls on black. But its a lot of work. I like how the light clusters blend into a black s2000.

Well I'm going to the dealer to finalize the deal on my pilot and S. Pics to follow.

Yeah that might be possible, but what about when you're washing the car with a sponge? Its impossible to avoid swirls with black. The more you wash it, the more swirls you get.

I was in the same situation 3 weeks ago. Torn between Sliver/Red-Black and Black/Black. I saw two car side by side and went with the 05 Black/Black I wish Honda offers Black/Red-Black.

Good luck.
