I don't have the japanese language pack installed right now so it's harder to find where the colors are. But you'll see on the s2000 front page there is a sebring silver sitting right out front.... hmmmmm.....

wait, here ya go. Looks like they do have it. My guess it's because japan gets some great color option we don't. Japanese typically like colorful thing more than Americans (unfortunately, because I want that orange dammit.)

I can puzzle out a little katakana.

The standard colors in Japan include both Silverstone (1st in 1st row) and Sebring (3rd in 2nd row). If they aren't seen much in Japan, it's because there are more options to choose.

I don't know where in Japan she was but it wasn't Tokyo that's for sure !!!!

I see probably 2 or 3 a day, but I would agree that there aren't many Sebring Silvers in that, the Silverstone seems to be by far the most popular colour over here ...... MC Blue is obviously the coolest colour though
