Did you think you'd keep it this long?

You're really going to have to stop posting lines like this - I almost peed myself laughing. 
Based on the attendees at the Sunshine meet, did you consider Berlina? Two out of four. Or maybe you could just ask Matrix about his favorite color.

I thought about black, but almost every car/Jeep that I've owned has been black. I wanted something different this time around.

Not to worry. Sebring Silver is really the fastest color. You're safe in Silverstone.

Yup. Silverstone was a good first try, but then they corrected their mistake. Later on, when it became clear that not everybody could handle a car as fast as a Sebring Silver model, they added Silverstone back in as a driver aid.
Thats exactly the way it was. Absolutely.

We generally keep cars for quite a while as long as they don't give us any trouble. Susan drives a MY1999 RX300 that has been outstanding.
We were talking about a sports car and Susan wasn't in favor of a stick shift or convertible. When the Honda found us it was love at first sight for me, what incredible lines. It took Susan about 1 week of driving the car daily and she was hooked. We've only had it for 6 months so selling isn't even a remote thought.

Boys, boys, boys, I'll have to say it is wonderful to see Mike and Ralper agreeing and doing so in such a wonderful way, but if you're going to be agreeable, please let it be over the right thing. Yall both know that Sebring is second only to Silverstone, which is the fastest due to the nuclear additives in the stardust particles in the paint that makes silverstone the fastest car.

You're close but no cigar. As Mike said, Silverstone was a good first try and Honda almost got it right. Unfortunately it took another two years for them to work the bugs out of the color and perfect it. Thats why Sebring didn't show up until MY02.
Nothing wrong with Silverstone. It is truly a classic color. It reminds one of exquisitely tailored grey flannel suits and sophistication, but the really perfect, most beautiful and fastest color Honda makes is Sebring Silver.
Sometimes it takes a couple of years and a couple of tries to get it right.

Actually Silverstone is highly refined Sebring Silver, taking a really great color and making it perfect. In achieving perfection, it also became the fastest color, so slippery and smooth that nothing else can even come close.
