Default Velocity Yellow Vert Orders

Is anyone getting a Kalahari Top and Kalahari interior with Velocity Yellow?

That sounds terrible... I really hope not. Black is the only way to go with VY. It has enough going on without having other colors involved.

It might look pretty good. I'm not a yellow man myself, but the first yellow GS Vert with Cashmere top and interior I saw really looked good.

Are you speaking about the top or interior or both?

Thanks for your input.

It will look much better then oak which is lighter. I think your combination is EXCELLANT.

I think both are the wrong choice for VY. I love the yellow, it's bright and sporty, I just don't think it looks right with brown. I like the Kalahari interior too, but again yellow just isn't the color to go with it imho. Reminds me of some color combo you would have seen in the 70's. I think black top, yellow brakes, black interior, and black wheels is going to be the most striking/exotic looking C7 vert you can come with.

This picture is amazing, and in a drop top it would be even that much more stunning. It's your money though, so whatever you want is what will happen

I am hoping to get Brownstone. I love that interior but have some concerns how it will look with VY.

This is why we need the GM "Build Your Own Corvette" so we can at least get some kind of idea what different combos will look like!

For a very quick look, if you know Photoshop:
1) Go to a site (there are several) that show the brownstone seats, copy the image, paste it into Photoshop
2) Do the same with an image of a yellow C7
3) Use the paint bucket dropper to grab an area of yellow from the C7 and pour the color into the area around the brownstone images.
4) Repeat with different shades of yellow from the #2 image.

I think the color combo will look fantastic.

Can't wait to see a VY and brownstone combo in pictures...that's what I'm getting. Modern on the outside and old school 70's on the inside. However I think it will be an 'acquired' taste...
