Red Interior
I am looking at buying a C6 with the red interior. it is the door panels, trim, center console and red/black seats. I am not a big fan of it so i am wondering if there is any interest in this? I want to see how fast i can unload those if i buy the car. This is not an attempt to trade or sell, just want to see if anyone has seen a interest for this or if it is in high demand.

My 2013 GS has the two tone Ebony/Cobalt Red:
I liked it when I first got the car but I absolutely hate it now. It looks incomplete and unfinished due to the stupid console bezel design not being symmetrical. I added the two tone console lid to add more color but it didn't help much.
IMHO! I wish it were all ebony. I'll be adding a DSV two-tone wheel and bezel next summer.

YES!!! This is the same one I was looking at. I think you get it thinking it will grow on you but never does. ANYWAY. The car sold 45 min after I talked to the guy. SO not a factor anymore. Thanks for any input.

I was referring to the overall design. The console lid matches well enough but it doesn't help because the right side of the console surround is red and the left side is ebony. It is not a symmetrical design, therefore, awkward looking.
Notice how unfinished it looks?

...........GM should have made the entire center console red. It would flow better!

OK I understand what you mean but I never give it much thought because I can't see it from the drivers seat, on my side everything obviously looks uniform all in ebony. You still should get the oem console lid in cobalt red, it gives it a more finished look.

My biggest problem with the red interior of the C6s is that the carpet isn't red as well. My first two Corvettes, a silver 64 Coupe and a white 94 coupe, both had full red interiors and I LOVED them.
