What Interior for Atomic Orange?
I ordered a 2008 C-6 coupe in Atomic Orange with Cashmere interior. Is Cashmere a good choice for the interior? I can still change the interior if need be. Traded in my 2006 C-6 that has 35,000 miles.

I think black goes best with AO.....for me cashmere was also not a good choice because mine gets a lot of driving (and it looks like yours does as well) and dirt/ grime/ wear shows more on cashmere than the ebony....bottom line is that it's personal preference....there's no right or wrong answer....

If you have ever had a very light colored interior, then you know what to expect.......very hard to keep looking new -- especially the carpeting and the outside edges of the seats. I think that the Ebony would be a better choice, but the cashmere and the cashmere/ebony two tone both look good too.....

My parents have 07 AO/Cashmere and I used their car for about a month and every 4 days I was shampooing the floormats to get soiled marks out .

I was always a big ebony fan but when I saw this interior combo in person I was very impressed. So much so that I ordered it in my 08. Put black (ebony) mats in and it looks great. No worries about the dirty cashmere mats.

I have an 07 AO with cashmere and I could not be happier. It is a great color combination, particularly after you add some bling to the interior from some of our sponsoring vendors.

I ordered my AO with ebony 2LT, love the way it looks with the orange. If I had it to do over I might go with the 2tone ebony/cashmere, only 600 bucks. You could go with red, you would be different for sure.

Atomic orange is one of those colors that I think looks great with either color interior. I personally like the cashmere, but again, the black does look great also. I have to say that I don't care for the two tone interior on the AO. Just my .02. Good luck and congrats on th enew car!!

And if anyone with 07 AO wants to trade out for 07 VY send me a PM. This one is prime.
