Default triple black ?

I read a post where someone said they had a triple black Corvette. Now I can figure out double black, car color and interior color, but number 3 has got me.
thanks for a reply

I believe the triple black is commonly known to corvette convertibles. The 3rd color would be the color of the top.

Does anyone really have a black body with a non-black top? That seems like it would look ridiculous.

I always thought triple black meant body, dash/carpets, and seats.

Around here, a black top is the exception on black cars. Most seem to have either white or tan. Personally, I like the contrast.
