Default C7 Blue interior

Anyone else think a Blue interior would look good in the C7 if it were an option?

I like the Blue interior on the C6 60th Anniv. Editions... I think it would look good in the C7 also...

Especially Cyber Grey and Laguna Blue.

That's a lot of blue, but I kind of like it. I really hope they at least bring back the blue contrast stitching on black interior while Laguna Blue is still in production and blue brake calipers. That would be the ticket for me.

I wouldn't order it but I definitely think that they should at least have it as an option. I also wish that they would have white and yellow seats available as well. I would have definitely considered getting yellow seats with my Velocity Yellow Stingray, I think it would go well with the rest of interior being black

I really like the blue exterior, but if the interior is also blue, not so much. Looks like something Papa Smurf would drive.

I like the blue interior of the 991 porsche. I think that would have looked great in the C7.

The stitching does look really good... I like the Blue stitching on the darker gray or black interiors.



I think the C6 Carbon Edition had this available.

They sell stitching dye sticks online - They work VERY, VERY well.


Also had a buddy go nuts in his 370Z.



Here is another 370Z guy w/ Red.

The right color of blue in the car would look good IMO. But I guess it would also add to production costs to have more color options and you have to wonder how many people would order that color interior.

I had a 77 corvette that was indigo blue on indigo blue leather interior, it was sweet. Still regret getting rid of it. Do I think that a Laguna Blue leather interior would be cool ? You bet !

Not a big fan of Blue on a Vette. Especially, in the Interior.

Here is the blue interior from a Porsche 991 I was mentioning. I think it would look especially good in a white or silver car.

Default Love the blue stitching!

I'd have to see what shade they offered to agree to a totally blue interior BUT I love that blue stitching pic!

We're waiting for a 2015, so it'll be interesting to see what different color combos they'll offer.

We plan to get Laguna Blue exterior (praying they repeat that for 2015), but bummed the suede center stripe on the seats only comes in a few colors. I FOR SURE want that. Hate sticking to the leater seats in the summer!

Thats what I'm talking about. I'm not a fan of white cars, especially white sports cars, but the blue interior on white looks great. my dad had an early 80's model 3 series BMW in that combo and it looked fantastic. A silver C7 with blue interior, yellow seatbleats, and yellow calipers would look too good.
