Both, really. And of course because it's the fastest color and resists thermonuclear attack well.

I chose it for the color. Hey, all you machine silver fans, the one interior mod I recommend is the machine silver interior console kit. I replaced my console with the machine silver console kit and in my opinion it really improved the overall look of the interior cabin. The kit is a real improvement over the stock console. So much so that I threw the stock console into the recycle bin. (Note: No pics-I don't own a digital camera)

How does that differ from the stock interior? It seems to be the same color, although not as shiny.

It's significantly different---higher gloss and the color matches machine silver. The stock console has a duller finish. It's the one interior mod I recommend for machine silver Corvette owners.
