Saw the commercial for the 02 Si...

WHY the ***** did honda opt to use that DISGUSTING mustard/gold color on it? I mean its ALREADY not the most handsome of cars available, then they stick the most god awful color on it. I suppose it goes hand in hand with the "youll notice it when you see it" theme of the TV ad, but... man Honda really droped the ball on this 1. NE1 else see this lame commercial yet?

Yeah...it looks a helluva lot better in white, but SOMEONE at honda is in love with that nasty a$$ color that nobody is going to buy b/cuz they can't stand to look at it. Interior is nice, but lose that color!

The good thing is that there's usually more than one commercial for a car. If they do more commercials (which is most likely to happen), they'll use the other colors... and no... haven't seen it yet. Since it's an affordable sports car like the RSX Type S, I'm sure it won't be hard to find on a station like MTV. Ugh... mustard.

I just saw the commercial on Fox, yeah the design of the car has never appealed to me and the color, well, its O.K.. the commercial makes it look much better than it really is though..

I think the new Si is ugly to the tenth power anyhow but that color makes it worse. All those car alrms that go off in the commercial are really saying, "dear god! get that terrible looking thing out of here!"

interior is pretty nice... like the seats, IMO white or black would be the best choices to get for the thing... MSRP?

But i still want one!

Yeah I saw the commercial too. They should have taken the oppurtunity to show the interior of the car as that looks really good. The reason I think they keep using that color is because I think it's only available on the Si.
