I wonder how bad it is. If I had a place to store it, I'd be tempted to buy it and keep it as a parts car.

There is a silver coupe AND Roadster I pass often on Michigan Ave. in DC at least a few times a week. There is also a Classic yellow roadster w/ Delaware plates that I pass and we flash high beams at each other every time we pass in the morning. I actually like the yellow...the black top makes it pop and breaks it up a bit. A yellow coupe would be a disaster.

It would've been more acceptable if it was a more rich and vibrant yellow like that on the Vipers. As for the gold I can honestly say I have never seen one and have only seen one silver coupe.
Totally disagree! Classic yellow is a rich looking color not like the bright yellows! I have never had so many compliments on any of my many cars as I have had on my yellow Roadster!

Every one of these cars are 12+ years older now (from the original posts timeframe), might be a little fading going on?

Take a picture outside on a sunny day, the bulbs in the garage can be misleading. Natural sunlight might be a lot better in what 'color' paint it is.

The light source can play havoc with the true colour. I left a green LHS in the.covered parking area at the Toronto airport for a few days, I kept a note of the level and area. When I returned I went there and could not see the green car in that area, I thought I must have written the level down wrong, so I looked on the level above and below. The area was just by the exit to the bridge to the terminal so that was easy to remember.
After 15 minutes I was back to square one, l saw a blue LHS and went over to it, it was my car but it looked like it had a respray.
The fluorescent lights changed the colour to appear the blue like my wife’s Concorde.
The colours and the cars may be the opposite of what I have written as this was in the late1990’s some time.
