Only renderings for the interior and no exterior renderings. But it is a start.

Not very useful when trying to figure out color combinations. Better than nothing.

Yes it is. $995 for Laguna Blue, Velocity Yellow and Crystal Red. $495 for Lime Rock Green. Working correctly.

I guess you mean it is not charging for D30 Color Override option for things like Red Interior with Laguna Blue exterior. I agree, it is not.

The pictures on this forum will be much better for that than any computer generated image on a configurator.

It shows the FAY option available (Carbon fiber interior trim) and lets you select it.
The site has some bugs, enlarge interior for example, but hey it's new.

And how many future Vette owners will come here doing an endless search for color combo's?

Poor marketing and not even close to what their competitors do.

The car is a world better. The customer sales tools.... NOT. GM needs to step it up a notch.

Definitely a big plus for me, granted the exterior is not available, but it gave me a good comparison between options on C6 vs C7 verts.

Loading up the vert with options, the C7 seems like a very good value.

That is correct. It would look pink.

That would seem to be an error. Should be available on 2LT and 3LT:
