Default Red Stitching Option

Has anyone purchased a 2016 with the Jet Black Interior and Red Stitching option? If so, any pics to share? I'm interested in this combo and would like to see some real world pictures. The GM build it site does not add the option into the corresponding pictures.

Thanks!

I can only imagine this is what red stitching will look on leather seats.

The red stitching in the pics above does look really good.

Not bad for a 2LT with red interior. I was impressed.


I don't know the cost for red stitching on black seats but I think it would look great. Up to you.

Red stitching on black leather seats would look fantastic. Worth the cost? Let us know. I' didn't have that option.

I was at a car show recently and saw a 2014 red convertible with black interior. He had the top down and I noticed he had red stitching on the interior. Seats, doors, dash, everything. I said I didn't know that was an option and he said it wasn't, that he had dyed every stitch by hand. It looked amazing with the red car.

Thanks!

The GM site WAS doing this for the 2016's... However, right now I can't get it to select any option on any browser.

$395 MSRP

It was worth it for me for 36S (Yellow Stitching).

The GM build it site allows me to select the red stitching option and the $395 cost is added. However the interior pictures of the Jet Black interior doesn't change and show the red stitching.

I thought that this was only available on the 3LT w/black seating. Is it now as stand-alone option available on the 2LT as well?

I think it's only available with 3LT. I'm also going with Comp seats.

I have it on my 2016 with comp seats. Basically it's perimeter stitching with accents on the dash, doors, and center console as you've seen in the other pics.

Here are some iPhone shots of the seats...not the greatest quality shots, but you'll get the idea.

Great pics. Thanks for sharing! I think this option would look great matched up with Long Beach Red.
