Comment: Yikes, who knew there was a Taffeta White and a Premium Sunset Mauve?!! I'd love to see pics of those.
Which market got Taffeta White??? That was the color of my old EP3 and is/was the standard "plain white" on other Honda models.

BTW, nice work on the list but I think some of those colors should have a larger date range, mainly those colors sold as premium colors in Japan for years (Imola, Lime, etc.). I guess Honda's part database left those years out for whatever reason.

I've never heard of a Taffeta white S2000.

We've had these in the FAQ for years - most of the paint codes, plus the proper Honda names for the paint and years available worldwide - I can add what you have that we don't to that list though. I didn't know countries could choose their own names, for example - thet's interesting. We've never been able to get color by number/yr.

PS - you missed Deep Burgundy Metallic

Hi SakiGT, Interesting that Honda's database does not contain anything related to Burgundy. I've also done a crosscheck to see if you can buy a paint stick for it - but no go, can't find it. I wonder if a reader on this post will pipe up if he/she has one. Maybe it was a Japan-only colour, who knows.

And yes, Canada renamed Chicane to Synchro, and America renamed Rio to Indy, but neither are recognized by the manufacturer.

And wow, this mauve has really grown on me - I love it!

Deep Burgundy is an EU Colour which IIRC was introduced with 1 other colour in 2006. Mine is this and there is a fair few other UK users with it.

It appears almost black but shines either bronze/purple/reddy depending on the light.

It is nowhere near as red as that picture shows

Pic! (Window frame shows the metallic quite well)
Another Pic!

Yikes, it looks metallic black. I can't see any brown in it in the pics. What is the colour code?

Happy to have found yet another S colour! Its obviously a rare colour, that makes it even more special. Interesting tidbit - the colour code starts with a Y, which indicates that they started with Yellow (would you believe) and then went from there. I'm guessing that you can really see the diff from black when the sun shines upon it.

Yeah, when the sun grabs it the paint looks awesome. I personally love the deep rich bronze you sometimes get

I think there was only 6/7 DBs on the What Colour is your S2000 poll last time I checked.
