For me, the 2LT has all the right stuff. I don't need or want the custom leather-wrapped interior, Napa Leather Seating Surfaces, Navigation, or Instrument Panel in interior color. However, if you like the the Brownstone interior, then you have to order 3LT to get it.

Remember if you pay 795 for the nav on a 2lt its included in the 4K for the 3lt...so the net difference is 3,200. BUT I agree with you. Not worth it to me.....

Totally worth it to me. The one major improvement they have spent so much time on is the 3LT interior. It what puts it on par with other higher priced sports cars.
Full leather wrap of the interior vs vinyl on everything but the seats? Totally worth it.
All those reviews where people say the interior is magnificent? All 3LT.

2LT is exactly what I want and all I need. I don't want navigation and will probably go with all black interior. And, I'm also not a fan of the Brownstone. Reminds me of some old den furniture.

the only thing I can see different from the 2LT description is "full leather" and "napa leather seats"...
Well, the standard 2LT is not vinyl but what some have described as almost indistinguishable from leather... real leather will fade in the sunlight unless you get limo window tint which is illegal in most states...and
"napa leather"? Why is that worth so much more than the regular leather seats?
Other than these minor differences, what is worth 4k?
Also, keep in mind that I am thinking about a black interior....

Having said that, I'm OK and I'm not down about my order.
OK? I'm, more than that; soon I'll be driving a beautiful new 2014 Corvette Stingray, with a beautiful black leather interior. Go ahead and feel sorry for me!

I'd be going 2LT with Nav, with the Kalahari color.
Typically I like some color in my interiors, but I think 3LT kalahari has too much brown on top of the dash.
I like the 3LT with the red and grey interiors because of the stripes of color on the dash, but would likely get a green car which doesn't really work with those colors IMO.
Black 3LT seems a little pointless, although in person I'm sure the difference is more obvious than in pictures.
Brownstone is the one that has me a little confused, as I like the color and the contrasting suede patches, but I think it might be a little too dark for me.
Therefore, 2LT Kalahari with Nav is a nice way for me to get the splashes of color I want, while saving some money for other options (or for race tires).
That said, I would like to see some cars in person before making my final call.
