White is perfect on this car. I think I read on this website that only 5% of the cars imported to the US are white. Please don't flame me if I am wrong. I am only going on memory. I love for many reasons - among them is white looks clean almost all the time. The tan is awesome. Nice contrast. Get a white HT and you are in heaven.

Every work truck, fleet car and delivery van is white. It not the first color that comes to mind when thinking about a sports car. It's rare for a reason...

White is Japan's national racing color, and there have been more interior/exterior combos for white than for any other color. There aren't a lot of white, red and blue S's compared to the silvers, black and yellow. At meets, I usually have the only GPW, and a Wake the Dragon this year, I heard there was one GPW out of 130 S's - that's pretty remarkable.

White is rare, that doesn't mean it's not popular. I drove 800 miles to get mine.. Get the white with red or red/black interior. I don't really like the GPW with tan interior.
My next favorite color is Berlina Black with red interior. But still.. GPW > All.

I would have bought white if it came in black interior. I've had tan leather/tan carpeting before and it looks like hell in a few years. The s2000 leather also looks a little cheap in the tan color for some reason.
