I've been to a lot of shows and have seen many exterior/interior combinations and the one that really pops for me is the Arctic White and Adreneline Red combo. Sort of a classic combo, but it just works with the C7 design.

However what GM really got right with the C7 is that since there are so many color and trim options, you can really personalize your Corvette.

I'm glad you started this thread. I'm looking at Shark Gray but am having a tough time with the interior. I like the Brownstone, but that picture doesn't look good to me. Although the lighting looks tinted in a weird way.

[QUOTE=Tork Monster;1591440749]Trying to tie down options on my order, I have been flipping around between Kalahari, Jet Black, Spice Red, Brownstone... and I have had a hard time finding good photos of the different interiors (other than the computer generated ones on GM's build site). Some look entirely different in person than on the GM site.
I thought others may benefit from a thread that is nothing but C7 interiors.

Here are a few photos to get this started. I hope others post some too.


Here are some I got off Google of the rare Brownstone interior:

Thank you. Damn, I thought I saw a spreadsheet somewhere showing how someone had ordered a few Z06s with Yellow on the exterior and Blue on the interior. There were a few people commenting about resale being difficult on that thread (which was full of different exterior and interior color options) too. I just can't find it!

Meanwhile Brownstone excites me least. Might be a generational thing (I'm under 30), but seeing the brown suede bits especially makes me feel like it's an old person's car :/ Just my thing, again purely subjective.

What I find amazing is how the interior color can change the perception of the exterior color. In the above example Rick Conti provided with the Brownstone interior, the interior almost makes the Shark Gray exterior look pewter.

I saw the same thing on a C7 vert this weekend at a show where the Kalahari interior made the Long Beach Red exterior look almost copper.

I'd like to know why GM likes to make Adrenaline Red interior look like a subdued oxblood/maroon in all of their printed literature as well as online build tools. It looks TOTALLY different in real life and is a very bright eye-searing red, nothing at all like what it looks like in anything published by GM. If someone orders AR interior based on the GM photos of it they'll be in for a total shock when the car arrives.

They do the same with the Kalahari. The GM photos/renderings show a deep, rich tan color, while the actual color looks more like peanut butter.
