Default Red with Titanium interior?

Choosing color combinations is hard. Any opinions on combining Titanium gray interior with victory red exterior? I was planning on the competition syle gray wheels as well. The alternative is cashmere or, of course, black.

Thanks,

Seevette

I think it would look great, of course cashmere and black would look great also but seem to be more of the norm.

So... I guess you're not a fan of the Red/red combo??
I saw one on the plant tour and while I'm not a fan of red (bright red that is ) I thought it looked great.

The nice thing about the red exterior, is that it will look good regardless of the interior choice.

Ahhhh to have these kind of dilemas....

Victory Red & Titanium Gray would be an excellent choice. It would make your car unique. Choose to be different!

Color choices are a matter of taste, not science. So pick what pleases YOU.

Our C5 was red (Torch Red) with the tan (Light Oak) interior. We liked it a lot and planned to order a C6 the same way. But when we looked at the C6 tan (Cashmere) interior, it seemed a shade too light for our taste- not as pretty and harder to keep clean.

So we drove 3 hours to look at a Victory Red with the Titanium Gray interior. When viewed through the tinted windows, the Titanium looks about the same as Cashmere. But as soon as we opened the door, my wife said "Wow!" We fell in love with the Victory Red/Titanium Gray combo, and ordered ours that way. We've had it for just over a month and still think we made the right choice.

You should be able to use the Search function to find some pictures, but to my eye the Titanium looks much better "live" than in a photo. You could use the Corvette Finder website to find a real one to look at.

We had already ordered our Monterry Red coupe with Cashmere interior, and were just goofing around with the computer. I switched the Cashmere interior out with the Titanium Grey interior, and my wife and I both just about lost it. The Monterry Red / Titanium Grey combination is absolutely stunning!

We changed our order the next day to Titanium Grey, and now that we have the car are absolutely convinced that this was the right decision.

A guy near where I live has a VR vert with titanium interior. I have VR with cashmere. We like to kid each other about which looks better. The truth is they both look great! You can't go wrong with that combo. Enjoy!
