Default Red interior

I currently have a 04 C-5 and I want a C-6 but my next Vett will be exactly like I want. I want a red on red coupe but so far no red interiors. Has anyone heard if chevrolet plans on making any red interiors in the C-6??????

I have Cobalt Red interior on mine... its a stock color and an option for C6's... if your talking about full RED carpets and everything like the C5, they do NOT offer that.. the carpets are ebony.... here is a pic... it is a current option..

From all that I have heard, the Red interior was offered on the 05 and is offered on the 06. It is only offered with the 2LT or 3LT package. The 1LT is Ebony only. Just looked at the Chevy web site and this seems to be the case. Hope this helps.

The Red interior in a Black car does look very sharp.

I had a silver/ red coupe like Tracey posted above. I traded that for the vert below with black (my dealer had it on the lot - I didn't order this one). I still miss the red interior. It really looks FINE with the silver.

I absolutely love the red interior on this car. It's a great choice.

Three out of my last four Corvettes have had red interiors; '78 Silver/Red, '96 Silver/Red, '98 Black/Oak/Oak & '05 Black/Red/Black.

So you can't get a base car (1LT) with red interior for sure?

I have torch red interior in my C5. In five years, I have changed the drivers seat cover a couple of times and have a new one in the garage ready to go on.

The C6 material seems to be much better than the C5. My experience did cause me to go with elbony on my 2006. Changing covers is not inexpensive.

BTW, I still love red interiors.
