was red the only color available in 02? did they only release one color a year in the us or what? seems like it to me except the last 2-3 years.
my 02 is red, and so are all the others i've looked up so far. Probably gonna paint mine soon I just haven't decided on a color yet.

I think that they only did one color per year for the SHawk, but of course I could be wrong.

My 02 is red as well.

All the 04's are black w/gold. I know that. Think you're right about 1 color per year.

I know in '99 you had a choice of black or yellow. I opted for the brand new leftover '98 sitting right next to it, because it was RED still had a full warranty, and was $1000 cheaper thank you very much.

There was also a silver ,matte black and light blue versions in Oz. I believe there was an orange one in Europe too
