I believe Suzuka Blue is a new color, but Sebring Silver pre-dates Silverstone Metallic.

I liked that color. Seems to be the hot color in the import scene right now to. I see all kinds of civics and Integras running around in those cloths. Wait a minute....thats not a very good defence is it? oh well. I miss my pimp daddy gold CL-S. I want another one, I'm thinking about getting an Aegean Blue 6 speed type-S now. That is a BEAUTIFUL color.

Yeah, not true dood. The colors popular in Japan are the least popular here, for example, white. Very different tastes.

When I lived in Japan from '93 to '95, I'd bet 75% of all cars and light trucks were white. Is it still like that? I could go to the shopping centers or whatever, and the parking lots were like a sea of white cars.

The reason those colours are the top three is that Sebring and Suzuka are the new S2000 colours and GP is Japan's racing colour.

Fashion, in all it's forms, seems to have less to do with people's actual taste and more to do with being noticed. I bet if Monte Carlo Blue was available from day one in the US you guys wouldn't be so fanatical about it. It was available here from day one and accounts for about 8% of ownership in the Honda Sports Car Club.

Actually Silverstone Metallic for the NSX is 2000-current.
