That is nice.

NRB is a great color, and that interior actually matches it quite well.

Wow that's nice! Not sure if I would get that color, but it's nice to see it offered.

About time the Corvette had richer interior color options.

Beautiful. I mean, that is beautiful. Glad to see a woman did the interior design. Now maybe my wife will appreciate the C7 more.

Its great to have choices. I currently have Cashmier and glad to see darker shades of brown. I am torn between the Kalahari and the Brownstone now with the Laguna blue exterior.....or black. I can't make up my mind.....

Thanks for posting this. I will definitely get this color with Lime Rock Green. I even like
the full treatment in this color, unlike the Kalahri, which I think is a bit much when the whole dash is covered in it.

Wow.. I'm not a brown interior fan but that's really beautiful for being a Corvette. A level of class not normally associated with the brand.

Where did you find these pics? I'm having a hard time finding many pics from the show.

I wonder: is that the real color as you saw it? I like the color but it does look a bit washed out or grayed over. But I'm sure we will all be seeing it soon enough.

I like the Kalahari one, too. A bit more bold, and I'm not sure I'd like it on the dash as well. But with the new exterior design, why not?

Here are some more pics I was able to dig up from that show.
Nice shot of the door. Notice the little mystery vent or microphone or what ever it is on the door panel. This was mentioned in another thread but you couldn't see it well.

Hmmm, looks a lot like the first pic. Thanks, Slief. That is a worthwhile addition to the colors for interiors.

Wow, this is a really nice color... hmmm... is it worth the 3LT cost? Probably another 6-7k with that nappa leather and standard nav.

That looks like the "Custom Suede-Wrapped Upper Interior Trim Package" (available with 3LT)

Don't know, but my guess would be alcantara, or a material similar to that.

I'm taking a bit of a fondness for this NRB as I see it more. That interior is a win, not sure I would choose it but its a good look.
