Default Yellow S2000: Kickass or Ugly?

I think it's kickass. Just wanna hear your opinions.

Also, if somebody has the time and energy, will you please explain what AP1 and AP2 stands for? I know it's 2000-2003 vs. 2004-present, but what's the "AP" all about? Thanks.

I think yellow is a true sports car color... You'll definitely get attention, even if you're driving a yellow Cavalier...

yellow, imo, only works on certain cars... and the s2k is one of them.

Vomit yellow? I thought yellow wasn't painted, they just got all the honda factory employes to **** on it then used to some dryer to make it stay. It does explain why when you have 2 or more yellow's lined up next to each other, each one is different shade.

Mine is Yellow, wasn't my first choice in color, but wasn't my last either. I'm planning on Mugen Fiberglass hardtop and paint it Black to match windsheild trim and Window Tint, break it up a little.
And as for grabbing attention, its a good thing the cop that pulled me over liked the color, and I have only had it for a month!

I'd never buy a yellow car, but I've seen yellow cars that don't look that bad.

One thing to consider is resale value, as that's directly related to how much demand there is for a yellow car.

yellow is the win definitely gets people attention, yellow wasn't my first choice either but it has definitely grown on me and I love it now.....and when I go over the speed limit cops just pass me by staring and wondering what kind of car it is and totally forget about pulling me over

This car is hot in yellow. And the Spa or Rio yellow they make is nice. But it would be a cop magnet I think. I`m not too wild over the New Formula red, its the same red as Nissan has, maybe they share the formula. Red should make a car stand out, which I dont feel THAT red does.
