Grand Sport Heritage Package????
Ok long an short of this whole ordeal. I have 2011 GS 3LT. Was at a friends and showing my sticker of car. He says where's your two tone seats that it shows you paid for and do not have. I was shocked and pissed all in one emotion. I said wow I paid 1195 for stickers and sticking in seats. I called the dealership since the car is 3 weeks old now. Asked the sales manager what the deal was. He said he would take care of it. Got a call last night. Claims he took it all the way up to the top of Chevrolet and final conclusion is because I have a 3LT package the two tone seats only come on the 1LT package only. I did read the other thread about the Heritage Package question but never saw the answer I was looking for. So the question is I have the Grand Sport Logo on the seats. Ebony color. I have the hash marks. But my window sticker says 2 tone seats.$1195 seems like a lot for stickers and stitching. Am I getting ripped off and the dealership blowing me off or what. Any help with this problem I would be really thankful for. Shannon

On the GM site it shows the cross flags on head rests... 300 bucks? The Heritage package shows 1195 dollars for the TWO TONE seats with hash stripe! If you paid that extra money you should have 2 tone seats according to GM website...... Price/build one and you'll see it's there for a 3LT! Something isn't right.....

I am 99% sure you can delete the two tone seats with the heritage package but I dont think they give you a credit. In shopping for the GS I just bought I remember coming accross such a situation, but cant remember where to get you the back up. That 3LT vs. 1LT thing from the dealer is BS.
A heritage with out the two tone is going to be very rare to say the least.
Edit: this was bugging me so I went on the the Cheverolet website and clicked "build your own", went through on a 3LT GS Coupe and checked the Heritage package box. At that point I picked Crystal Red (dont know your exterior), it gave me the 4 interior options and Ebony was an option along with 3 two tones. When I then clicked on the interior tab it actually showed a picture of the all ebony seats with the Grand Sport logo on the head rests. So it does looks like you can choose the all ebony interior with the Heritage Package. Hope that helps explain it.

I think the dealership simply didnt specify the 2 tone seats when it was actually ordered. I would find out who orders the Corvettes at the dealership where you purchased it and have your next discussion with them. I would be upset also if you paid for the Heritage Pkg but didnt get it.

What color is your interior? The Heritage Package is only going to include 2-tone seats if you ordered an interior that is not solid ebony. On a 2LT or 3LT car, that would include the ebony/red, ebony/titanium, and ebony/cashmere interiors. When you order any of those interiors, the seats come solid in the alternate color unless you order the Heritage Package or the free-standing 2-tone seat option. If you have the solid ebony interior (where the entire dash and door panels are ebony), the seats are going to be solid ebony, too. BTW, your dealer gave you incorrect information. Solid ebony is the only interior that's available with 1LT - you cannot get titanium, red, or cashmere seats or interior with 1LT.

There should be a logical answer for this and I suspect the above post is correct that while it is a heritage edition because of the Grand sport embroidery and hash marks that it was special ordered that way and the sticker only reflects the verbage of the standard heritage edition. I would like to see the sticker too if you post it too see what it says. Your dealer is just a dumb a$$ who doesn't know diddley.
Should there have been a credit for some portion of the package cost.....maybe ......maybe not as it is custom. So I would say not. So be happy with the car you bought......Remember YOU bought it. It obviously wasn't a factor in your purchasing decision.
Now go out an enjoy the car you bought!

Well I feel that the dealership is done with me. Has anyone ever contacted Chevrolet to discuss a problem an how do I get that phone number. Also I would be happy if they just gave me back a portion of the package price since I didn't get the seats. This is about to send me over the edge.

Sorry but fact is you saw the car and bought it because you liked it. You didn't look at the sticker and buy it because it had two tone seats.

To the OP, what does your Interior color indicate on the sticker?

These GS interiors seem to be a repeated source of misunderstanding and misinformation by dealers. Mpuzach got it right as usual. Here are a couple previous discussions if you're interested:

And as posted on WMark's sticker above but from the order guide:

I think I would demand a Face to Face meeting with the Factory Rep on this. You paid for the Heritage Pkg and you didnt get the full package. Chevrolet should have something in there ordering system that tells the person doing the ordering that a 2 tone selection is needed. If 2 tone not wanted then the Hertige Pkg should not be available and the other items would need to be added individually. I think a Face to Face meeting with the Factory Rep will be much better than any more worthless phone calls.

My interior in ALL ebony and it says on my sticker EBONY does not say anything else. But then on the sticker it says Heritage Package with 2 tone seats. Logo Seat Headrest and Fender Stripe Dealer Installed. The whole interior is Ebony. Dash Door panels. Everything!
