Still seems odd seeing light brown/tan interior in a grey car.

Perhaps it will seem like it matches in person. I really like the cyber grey - or whatever they'll call this color. And I like tan interiors. Never thought the two would go together, tho.

If it won't match gray, it will match nothing.

Pretty phenomenal. 900 people paid 25 dollars to attend a Stingray seminar and it was well worth the price of admission. These are just the photos I took with my iPhone. I have a ton more I'll try to post tomorrow.

It'll definitely be on display tomorrow during the DuPont Cars and Coffee. I can't say for sure it'll be on display all day though.

I have the same feeling. Love Cyber Gray. Love saddle and some beige interiors but never imagined the two together. That said, I think I like it. Just not totally convinced (yet). I definitely will need to see it first hand though. That said, white with that interior will be pretty nice.

Looks like a luvely day in northern Florida around 70° with a slight westerly breeze.

Good day for viewing the a new C7, feels like victory.

Thanks for positing up the pics.

But they do quite well, actually its more terracota than just tan.
It would look striking in a black vette as well.

I was also at the seminar and in fact my wife and I are in a couple of these pictures, and the car in person, on the grass, and in the sunlight is absolutely fantastic, including the rear look. The Cyber Gray in the sunlight reflects the blue fleck in the paint. I have a C6 now, and the new C7 is truly a worthy replacement. The VP in the picture was asked about the rear end concerns and he got a little testy about it, but after seeing the car in person and outside in the sunlight, it truly is amazing. This car should appeal to us old bastards, working on our fourth Corvette, and the next generation of Corvette lovers who have just found the Corvette. Not all will agree, and that's the beauty of the Corvette family, but folks, this car is awesome when you see it outside in the sunshine, where it belongs...
