Default Swirl marks - Silverstone vs. Sebring

I am planning on getting a 2004 S2000 later in the year and am down to Silverstone or Sebring Silver. Right now I have an RSX-S in the equivalent of Sebring Silver, and I love the fact that it doesn't show any swirl marks. So, I'm wondering how well Silverstone hides swirl marks. Is it better, worse, or about the same as Sebring? Thanks!

Sebring hides swirl marks better, but why not buy the color you truly love and eliminate all the swirl marks? It's not that hard.

Just use Meguiars swirl remover and a good polish before waxing or zaino and you wont have any problems. My silverstone is 4 1/2 years old with 0 swirls

actually the sebring silver is a little lighter than the rsx types. my brother has one and we park next to each other. if you are looking for low maintenance sebring is where its at.

I always get complements on how clean my car looks even if it's been weeks since it's last bath! Sebring rules!

I don't have any problems with swirl marks, but I also use microfiber towels when cleaning it.

I love my Sebring. Zero visible swirls after two years. It's not my daily driver however.

I just tried Eagle One Nanowax today on my daily driver (black) It does a really nice job of hiding swirls!
