take it
you should be able to get that car combo at a heavily discounted price because there will be no takers...
take all that money you have saved from the deal and drive it to the best paint detailer and have it painted black or red

I could be wrong, but I doubt the dealer would order that combination for dealer stock; must be a customer order, and I would wager the dealer required a hefty non-refundable deposit so the customer wouldn't back out when he sees how fugly the combination is...

I'd have to see it. Not sure if you could order one that way unless you had some inside "pull".

Well I did some checking and found this out. In 2007 there were 3 cars built Atomic Orange/Red interior.
1. Coupe 2LT Z-51 Automatic Raymond Chevrolet Antioch Il
2. Coupe 3LT Z-51 Automatic Superior Chevrolet Cincinnati Oh
3. Coupe 3LT Z-51 Automatic Two-Tone Red/Black Lowe Chev Waynesville MO
All three of these cars were ordered for stock and have been sold
1. 08 Convertible 3LT Auto Nav Amigo Chev Gallup NM

No pull needed, just money. RPO D30, color override for an upcharge of $590 you can order any available non-standard color combo.
The Corvette team jokingly refer to it as "taste delete".

I've got a 2008 AO coupe.
I really like the red interior, but just NOT with AO.
That would be a BIG mistake.
IMO, the best 2-tone interior colors for Atomic Orange are Ebony-Titanium & Ebony-Cashmere. You can't go wrong with either.

Buy it cheap and take it to Gerado at DownSouthVettes so you will not be embarrased to drive it.
