Someone on another site put this together, nice to play with. Allows carbon flash and black roof options.

its a photoshop job by a hobbyist, the interior options are still a work in progress. Take it for what it is

It's not correct for the interior in 3LT trim.

Kind of fun to play with for an approximation - but a bit sad that the colors seem off by quite a bit. Also, I was sort of excited to try the black ("carbon flash") paint on the mirrors and spoiler but it looks pretty bad because of the p-shop job.

That said, this is a good tool for an approximation for those who want to try some configurating. I don't think the 3LT interior is necessarily accurate (kalahari didn't wrap all the way around) but still decent.

This is what GM should have on their web-site. They still have the C6 configuration.

Not very useful. Colors are not right, interior options are not right.

I like this one better than GM's C7 configurator.

While it still needs a little work, very nicely done!

I'd say they did a pretty good job. You can tell some things are photoshopped, but good job. The 3LT is not correct as someone pointed out. Other than that...

its all a photoshop rendition, as that's all the guy had to work with. I went and re-read his original posting, he was taking a stab at the interior but is a work in progress. I would not even click on interior at this time

As I said fun to play with, I thought it was fun to at least be able to put on the carbon flash/roof parts. Im sure a professional version is in the works with GM, but I haven't seen anything any better anywhere else yet. Take it for what it is

Default Try the interior now!

Give it a shot. I put some more work into it. You will still have to think for yourself a bit about allowed combinations.

Pretty cool Thanks for the update. If I may, I would like to know if you can do one thing....can you make a selection for carbon fiber dash vs not? Leave the images of the interior the way they are and then add the CF options. And maybe have a zoomed in section of the dash section too. Thanks.
