Default 2003 Red S2000 with Red interior?

I went to Brampton (Classic Honda) yesterday and they have 3 S2ks. 1 silver, 1 black, and 1 red. The red car has red interior. Funny but in the Honda.ca website there is no red/red combo. There is only red/black.

Why in the US there so many more color offerings? There is no silverstove silver, no yellow, no suzuka blue offered in Canada

i don't think red/red was available from the factory...perhaps the previous owner swapped out the interior.

Those colors WERE offered in canada.....just not all in the same years.

Red/red is a frightening thought.....

Although we do seem to get a wider variety of colors here, it is only by a few.

And keep in mind, here in the states we can ask the same question. Why can't we get all the color that are available in Japan like Monte Carlo blue (FYI- we in US have never gotten this color), Imola Orange, bright green, and dark red?

It costs the same to ship a red car as it does to ship a blue one, and they are all obviously made at the same place. The lack of selection is typical Honda, and clearly I have never seen a reasonable explanation for it.

In the UK you can still have a choice between black with full red interior (like 02-03) or the partial red interior (00-01). Same thing with the silver and red combo. I've never liked the red dash...just too much for me.

I'd like to have one of the black with tan leather interior combos that was shown in the May (or was it June) issue of F1 magazine with Jenson Button driving. When is it ever going to come?

BTW I saw one of the green s2k's & one of the orange s2k's when I was at the Twin Ring Motegi - Indy 300 in April. They look even worse in person! It was amazing however to see the 50-60 s2k's driving around the track for the driver's parade.

I've seen the Orange in Europe. I didn't like it.

What is the best color combination for you?

I like White/Blue and Silver/Red. White/Tan sounds interesting too (offered in the US). Also Silverstone/Red is nice but is not offered here anymore...

Keep in mind, I already own a Spa, I suspect I would love the Imola Orange....

My #1 choice is Spa, with black interior, but it would be so much better if some of the details, door inserts, seat inserts were grey, just to lighten it a bit.

My #2 choice would be Imola Orange, with a black/grey interior, black roof

My #3 choice would be Monte Carlo Blue, with a black/grey interior, black roof

My #4 choice would be the dark red from Japan, black/tan interior, tan roof
