Default Confused with 1LT, 2LT and 3LT interior trim > pics

Now I am confused.

What I understand is that the 1LT just gives you colored seats and nothing else. In other words, if you opt for red seats in the 1LT, everything else in the interior will be black.

2LT gets you red seats, red console and red door arm rests.

3LT gets you red seats, red console, red on most of the door surface, and a red dash.

Well, look at these photos below. (I don't have a photo of the 1LT with just the colored seats, but I have photos of the 2LT and the 3LT).

But if you look at the last photo, you see something different:


2LT with colored seats, console and door arm rests:



3LT with colored seats, console, most of the door surface and dash:



What model is this? It has everything the 3LT has, but only the outer section of the dash is colored (the top surface is not)
(it also has less of the door surface colored than the 3LT above)

The middle pic is the full suede option with 3LT. The bottom pic is 3LT without full suede.

Full suede is only available with 3LT.

Actually, I agree with the OP...looking at the show cars has been confusing.

I actually think the 3LT Kalahari and Brownstone choices do extend to the windshield on the dash and the others don't. I am beginning to think the suede on the doors/console/dash is standard Brownstone and probably not available in other colors.

With reference to Robert R1's comment...the official ordering guide "full suede option - IWE" does not mention doors/console/dash...only headliner/pillars/visors.

This is correct. The brown colors extend up the dash. The red and gray do not.

So what would distinguish the differences in look of each interior option if you ordered Jet Black seats?

Probably little change in the look...just the quality of the leather?

I was going to make a thread about this. Besides the better quality leather, which I'd like to determine in person if its noticeably better, I don't see much of a difference in look between a black 2LT and 3LT. I do suppose with the 3LT you could order the full suede package which would give more texture contrast.

Let's talk 1LT - All the said areas are covered with leather materials however, it's just the standard Black correct? or are all the doors, upper dash, and arm rest hard plastic?

LS3 E85 Corvette ...

I am not the expert here on this C7 (I own a 2011 GS now), but the C7 1LT would come with whatever color seats you order, and the rest would be your basic black just like on the C6.

As far as the C7 1LT, I understand the only seat colors that are available is red, black or gray.

IMHO, the gray seats with the rest of the interior on a 1LT being black would look alot little better than all black ... might make for a nice combo with most exterior colors.

Thanks for the info, and suggestion. I will be getting black/black/black on the car so I'm cool with that. My specific question is the following.

Will the material being used on the the 1LT C7 Doors, center arm rest, and the top of the dash, be a soft leather like fabric, or hard plastic like the C6 1LT.

I only ask because my wifes Lexus CT200H interior fabric feels AMAZING, and was hoping the 1LT comes with something similar. I see the 2lt, and 3LT have fabrics in these areas but are simply different colors. I'm hoping the 1LT is a nice fabric but just black vs being all hard plastic.

I hope that makes more since

It may be soft touch materials instead of hard plastic. Lots of questions still to be answered.

I think you are right. I don’t see much value for the 3LT.

So from the pics above, it looks like the 2LT will have leather/vinyl on the dash and doors like the 3LT. no sure.

If you look real close the seat backs are dark (Jet?) Black while the rear hatch area appears Ebony like in the C6.



Compare that with this picture of the C7 Jet Black seat showing the base and seat back looking the same shade of (Jet?) black as above.



I'm wondering if the Jet Black c7 interior will have two shades of black distinguished the same way as with the other seat colors? Now that would be interesting.

After seeing the C7 in person with Brownstone and Grey interiors, I may be wrong, but the first 3 photos, none of these are the suede interior seats. Suede give a very two tone appearance to the seats. I would really wait and see a production car before deciding on interior trims.

Under the crappy lights at the April Bash, I took these photos. You can see the grey interior in two of them (why I didn't shoot more I don't know). Remember the lighting sucked.....big time!!!!
