Re: Mag Red 1SA - what color seats? (Punchy)
My local dealer has one in stock with gray. It looks great.
This is just my opinion but with all of the cars you have in stock you need to get something different.
If you have a lot of cars in the same color combos in stock and you have allocations to fill, order something different. This is what I would order.
Convertibles:
Black/Oak/Oak
Black/Black/Red
Mag Red/Black/Gray
Sprial Gray/Black/Red
Sprial Gray/Black/Gray
Yellow/Oak/Oak
Red/Black/Red
Red/Black/Gray
Coupes:
Black/Red
Black/Oak
Mag Red/Gray
Silver/Red
Sprial Gray/Red
Yellow/Oak
Red/Gray
If you have cars that are different a buyer can't shop you because your competition will not have the same car. I also think you have more chances to sell a car because you have more choices. Some buyers want something different, they don't want the same old thing.
When I bought my silver/red 01 I would not have bought it if it had black interior. I wanted something different.

IMHO, a Mag Red w/Oak has become cliche`. I know it looks good, not arguing that. But I bet you 97% or more of all Mag Red cars have oak interior. How sporty is brown anyway? Now give me a nice gray interior and maybe even a couple of small carbon fiber or aluminum accents and you have something sporty, classy, and.....AND....the interior ceases to be the belly button (every one has one) of the car. Just an opinion. Oak is real nice, but there are other options that are just as nice, yet hardly represented.

How come no one orders MY with black top and oak interior. A friend has a red with black and oak and it is the nicest red vert I've seen.

Looks like mag/oak wins. Thanks for voting. Next week I'll order a mag/oak 1SA auto with G92 & polished wheels. If it goes over well or if we pre-sell it before it comes in, I'll order mag/grey next time.
Corvette Ed - we do order different combos. Of your wish list, I do have:
Black/Oak/Oak - instock
Black/oak/oak 1SB B84 G92 MXO QF5 UIS Z51 V49 msrp $55,585
Sprial Gray/Black/Gray - I had one inbound but was sold before it came in. We do take deposits on vettes before they come in. Have another one coming in with a 6 speed this time. Awesome combo!
Red/Black/Red - instock
Red/red/black 1SB MN6 ULO UIS N73 msrp $55,245
Black/Oak - two instock
Black/oak 1SB B84 MX0 N73 msrp $48,295
Black/oak 1SB B84 G92 MXO QF5 V49 Z51 msrp $48,040
Sprial Gray/Red - instock
Spiral grey/red 1SA MXO msrp $44,535
We try to mix it up when we can while keeping the "standards instock". Don't forget you can custom order a vette with us with the exact options/color you want & have it in about a month. You can take delivery in GA, at a dealer near you, or at the museum (which is awesome!)

Monica,
Is there any additional cost to take delivery at a dealer near home rather than at your place?
Thanks,
Dave

Hi Dave.
When we place an order we can have the vette shipped to a dealer near you instead of to us. Most dealers charge about $150-300. I have seen some places, like CA charge up to $500. You can also take delivery at the museum in KY for $490. Check out more on that option at www.corvettemuseum.com
