2019 GS Convertible
Hi, just joined this forum today and I can’t figure out how to post but here’s my question. We are ordering a 2019 GS Conv in LBR and are having trouble picking an interior. ( I hate black.). I am afraid to pick spice red because it might clash. Has anyone seen any combos that looked really good? Appreciate any help. Thanks!

I almost ordered a GS Convertible in LBR , I like the two tone black and grey seats... I really love that color, but red hasn't been good to me. I have had 3 red corvette's and something happened to each one of them, the first one somebody ran into the front of it,the next one was flooded with hurricane Gustav and totaled,and the next one somebody backed into the rear quarterpanel, my other ones were black but that's just too much work to keep clean. So I ordered a 2019 Blade Silver GS Convertible... That LBR looks so good though, I really think any color you pick will look great. Good Luck,

ok, if LBR is the best color for 2019, what is the best color for the matching interior? I really need help, ordering ours on Monday and only have pictures to look at. Who has seen a cool LBR GS Convertible interior color? Thank you!!

Go with Kalahari. I was fortunate enough to get the first year color 2016 LBR one of the first built in fall of 2015 and the last year interior Brownstone and love it.

I'm Corvette shopping for the first time and I am looking at Torch red ( 1st choice) but I've come across a LBR/Kalahari and I'm starting to get drawn to both. The LBR looks much richer pop doesn't "pop" quite as much to my eye. Not sure that's a bad thing. Classier for sure. Is the paint application at the factory any different? Does it show swirls more/less than the non metallic Vette colors. Not sure how fiberglass affects any of this. The color is growing on me with all these pictures. As far as the interior goes ..black is my first choice. Looks good, wears well and hide the dirt. I've had a color close to Kalahari in an Audi A8 and I didn't like it at first and then grew to love it.

I think the LBR is a great color. As for showing swirls, the idea is to try not to get swirls in the first place. I'm sure it won't show them as evident as a black car would. I think I'm in the minority, but my interior of choice with LBR is Spice Red; after that, it would be Kalahari.
