Default Interior Color Question

Hello everyone.

What is the ligh interior color that comes with the C6 Victory Red Vettes called?

It looks like beige or very light grey and in some pictures it looks almost white.
Is it the one they call cashmere?

Anybody know what I'm talking about? (I hope "I" know what I'm talking about)

Thanks for the info guy and gals.

Cashmere is a pinkish tan/beige.

Light Titanium is a very pale gray/putty color.

The '08 4LT Linen is almost white.

Anyone have any pictures of these interior colors?

I'm looking for a Vette with one of these interior colors but I really don't know what to call it.

It looks almost white.....Red Vette & White Interior..... my dream, LOL.
It's not exactly white but it's close enough to make me salivate over it.

My old 91 Vette burned last week and I'm going to move forward a few years but want to get the interior color that I want.
Exterior HAS to be red, of course. Read the book "All Corvettes Are Red" about 12 years ago and have never owned anything but red ones.

Red with mod red interior
Red with carmine interior
Red with Red interior ....... deceased.

I would say it's the Linen color you want.

WOW!!! If I could get that with RED exchanged for the ebony, that would be my new Corvette Dream interior.
Not to say it's not beautiful 'as is'. It looks better than most, thats for sure and much better than plain ebony.

I'm having a LOT of trouble finding a Vette meeting my specs.
I think I've narrowed it down to:

2008 Model Year (Want the Ls3 with the HP bump)
BRIGHT RED Exterior
Tan or Titanium OR RED Interior Or Cashmere
NAV System
Z51 Suapension
Polished wheels
Less than or equal to 30,000 miles.
OK to have a small scratch or 2.
NO DAMAGE HISTORY. THey never put all the retainers back in place and then you have a rattle trap.
The miniature sheep doggy would be my #1 option choice.
Or a little Yorkie. (I'm partial to yorkies, got two co-driver yorkers already)

If I get an absolute PERFECT Vette, I won't drive it.
If the miles are too low (less than 10,000) I won't drive it.

Need one I can DRIVE and ENJOY.

But since I'm throwing down the dough thought I may as well look for what I really want, trim wise. (RED Exterior, Tan or Titanium or Red Interior or Cashmere, Z51, NAV System)

I've got a couple of GPS systems (Garmin) but don't want to have to stick them up in the window like I'm having to do now.

My Vette is out there...... somewhere.... and someone else is driving it.

Just to clarify, the cashmere interior is the one that looks "tan". The available light colors are cashmere (looks like tan or beige), titanium (looks like light gray), and linen (available only as part of 4LT Preferred Equipment Package, looks very close to white). Cashmere and titanium interiors are available with or without two-tone seats. The two-tone seats look like these (from the picture in RickT's post above:



The solid color seats are solid cashmere or titanium like these:



In either case, the upper dash and doorpanels are ebony in color. With the titanium interior, carpets are ebony; cashmere interiors get cashmere carpets.

I LOVE the interior of the red Vette. THe Two Tone Seats (AND doors) are super.

But I LOVE MORE the seats in the black Vette. . . .maybe.
I've always "had a thang' for a RED car with light or white interior.
Not sure the linen would do it for me, though.

Actually I cold be very happy with EITHER of those interiors.


Where oh where is my next Corvette? Someone has it now, I hope they are loving it as much as I will. Polishing and caressing it.

THink I"m pretty well settled on a 2008. Got to have the LS3 AND the 6 speed AUTOMATIC.
Got to have the Z51 option and the NAV system.
No damage history.
A "well LOVED" Vette, not one that's been rode hard and put up wet.
That's bad for hosses as well as Vettes.

ANyone know where my 'next Vette' is?

Cashmere interiors (all cashmere or cashmere and ebony two-tone), are the only ones other than all-ebony, that come with color coordinated (i.e. cashmere) carpeting.
