With!!! I have a 02 MY and wish I had gotten modified TR interior. Black is clean and classic, but the modified is only available on the Z06 and looks awesome. Even the blue would compliment the TR hides inside.

EB/Torch is a standout. :cool:

This is a great time to get that color combo. It will always be special.

I like the EB/MR combination myself. I don't know if you have seen the mod red interier but if not I would suggest checking it out first. When I was trying to decide between the black or MR interior with TR exterior I knew I liked the red seats but was not sure about the underdash and map pockets. It's hard to tell from pictures. I finally found an 01 that had the MR interior to look at and thats when I made the decision to go with it. It is awesome!! :jester

I second Sodian's advice about seeing the MR interior in person. My wife loved the MR in the brochure but when we saw one in person, she said :eek: and I agreed.

The mod red would be a great interior on a Saturday night at a cruise meet, but is a little too flashy for my tastes on a day to day basis. I thought the Z06 interior was "plastic" enough in the basic black. The red makes it look even more plastic. At least the black "looks" like leather! Then again, I ordered the car in basic black with the black interior, so I guess my tastes are rather plain.

Obviously, you should get what you want, but definitely find a MR interior car, and sit in it, outside in the daylight, with the doors shut. I did that and "WOW" that red is BRIGHT. :seeya

Taste varies but I bought the torch red exterior with motified red interior. Every single person that has seen it loves the look. It adds a bit of flair and really brings out the natural interior contours. No mattr what you choose... If its a Z06 it will get looked at... :seeya

Check out the MR interior. I have an 02 MY/MR and love the interior combo. I saw an EB/MR on the lot when I picked my Vette up. Real Nice!!
