I don't want to sound mean but do you get negtive comments like "Thats a gays color" or something that comes back to a gay or fruity color. I'm looking for a S2K this coming march and I need to chose a color. I just wanted to see what response you get with this color car.

Thanks Alot

I've never heard that comment, (even living close to San Francisco) and even if I did it wouldn't bother me. Every comment I've had has been positive.

Sky15.... Alot of positive remarks including, That's the best color, awesome color dude, I have never seen that color all I ever see is red and silver. People love the blue interior it draws tons of attention. I also like that blue isn't as attention getting as yellow or red, If I had either of those colors I would have certainly had a ticket by now. I actually like all of the colors except white, I think white hides the cars lines.

Sky15 you should buy the car and color you like, this is going to be your car not everyone elses. Like my mama use to say, Who cares what everyone else thinks.



Remember even the Honda CART car is blue.

Suzuka Blue is by far my favorite color. Good thing that I found one. Haven't had a single bad response. Have you actualy seen one up close?

The only time I've been harrassed about the color is in a joking manner by the other S2000 owners that I know. Every other comments I've heard have been possitive. It is also nice having the only blue S2000 out of 25 or so at the local S2000 club events. I see at least 4 S2000s each day, but I have only seen another blue a couple times this year.

I also think the color makes it invisible to cops. I've driven 12K of the fastest miles in my life, and I haven't been ticketed once. I usually drive 30~50 mph over the speed limit if I'm not blocked by someone.

I have not received any girly comments about mine. When my wife drives it (yes I do let her), she gets "cute" comments a lot. When someone calls it cute I have taught her to tell them "Don't call it cute, it has the most powerfully naturally aspirated engine per liter in the world." She gets a kick out of that.

Good point I will have to have her throw that extra bit in there... wouldn't want those people who call it "cute" to get confused.
