Default 2LT vs 3LT

Only difference I can see on the order guide is Navigation is included on the 3LT and optional on the 2LT.

3LT includes more contrast leather on the dash, doors, and console.

3LT also allows you to get the IWE upper trim package and Brownstone.

And you can get Nappa leather.

Looks like the C7 3lt package replaced the 4lt option of the C6.

I wonder how much the Nav option alone will be? I am getting it when I order my 2LT as an option but since the 2LT includes the Bose 10 speaker system, I figure the Nav alone maybe $500? Any ideas?

I also am wondering what the price for the nav will be, the touch screen will be standard in all the corvettes so really all they need to include is the actual program rite.

Is there anything official from chevy where they describe 1lt,2lt and 3lt?

Would be very helpful when deciding on which options to order...Can't believe it's not printed somewhere. Press kit maybe?

Do the 1LT-3LT cars come with a CD player if you don't get the optional navigation?

I've only read XM & basic plug-ins.

It's in the sales order guide posted on one of the threads and the dealer order guide that was posted yesterday from Dave@Kerbeck. They have either S for standard or A available or a square symbol to depict included with the trim level you want....

Looks like CD players in automobiles are disappearing, I don't see one in the C7

I imagine the Nav option will be well over $500. Nav is typically one of the high margin options so cost is only a minor factor. For example all of the Cadillac CTS models have the same display screen and the performance model includes the 10 speaker Bose system but adding the Nav option is $1,650 list. In general aftermarket Nav systems are better but I like the integrated version so I will "suffer" the markup on the C7 just like I did on my last CTS and will do on my 2014 CTS.

If it makes you feel better cut back on soft drinks, snack foods, etc. since the average person spends far more per year on those than this option will cost AND your total C7 weight (car plus driver) will be lighter

Default Pictures

There are lots of pictures of the interior online. But which ones are 1LT, 2LT or 3LT. I have see tan interiors with tan dashes, tan interiors with black dashes and a red interior with a red trim piece around the gauges and the rest is black. Are the interiors different for Z51 models?

The option for Navigation in 2009 was $1,750 I am sure it will be that or greater, considering the fact it will be better than the old Denso system.

Well, the reasoning behind the $500 was because when I bought my C6 in Feb. the Nav and Bose were in the same package, now there not. You get the 10 speaker Bose in with the 2LT, so Nav is just one line item. Second, without the Nav you still get the 8 inch display screen, unlike the C6. If you didn't purchase 2LT or better, you were left with a cheap looking radio and no screen. I don't care if it's $1500, I'm still getting it, I was just curious.....

Nav could be a pretty cheap option.

We just ordered a 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee and the models that had the 8.4" screen could upgrade to navigation for $400 since all the dealer had to do was hook up a USB drive and install it.

If nav is $2000, it will be a pretty big rip off.

It's hard to say. The previous NAV unit required the display and the DVD drive. The C7 screen will be there regardless if NAV is or not, and there's no drive. Basically, it's just a software option.

I wish it was not standard with 3LT; I would not get it.

That is what I was thinking also....

well I hope im wrong, but if they did plan on it being a minimal price increase then they would have made it standard, but by making it an option then they probably plan on charging alot for something that is practically free to install.

Yeah but there was only one difference between 2lt and 3lt that was the nav is included with the 3lt. There has to be more to the 3lt than adding nav... What exactly is done to the interior... That is what I'm asking
