Interior Question
Just got back from ordering my Stingray :-) I picked the 3LT Coupe (not Z51). When we picked the interior color, grey, it came up with either Mulan or Napa leather. Only Napa was available on the 3LT. Is this a nicer leather than the Mulan? Thanks.

My experience in owning cars with and without Napa leather is that the base Mulan/ Milano type leathers are bit shinier , more vinyl like in feel but are hardier , whereas the Napa leathers are softer, more supple and have a matte appearance. But they don't suffer careless fools as well, if you know what I mean.

Maybe as a general rule, but this issue came up at the Bash and the Lead Interior Designer Ryan specifically addressed the question as to whether NAPA would wear as well as other trims. He responded that all C7 interior trims meet the same wear resistance tests and standards for the same part, e.g., all seats meet the same wear resistance tests.
