Default Spice Red

Ordering GS in late spring. I have decided on it must have the Spice Red interior. First choice for exterior is AW. Please post picture of your car with Spice Red interior no matter what color exterior your car is. I'm looking to see different color exterior with Spice Red and maybe it will have a different look than just viewing picture on dealer lot or corvette build page. Plus would you say why you chose that color combo. Yes I know this may be just a matter of taste I would like to hear about your choice. I'm choosing Spice Red because of the deep richness of the red and that it not so bright and I love the wheels that also come with package. Thanks Dave

LBR is a very rich color and I love how it looks in the sun.

Pictures looked great Silver might be a good choice . My wife loved Sterling Blue and silver is similar and looks great with Spice Red.

Love the LBR Spice Edition. If you are ordering a GS, you will get GS wheels, not the special Motorsport wheels. (I think) If you order a Z06, the Spice package does have different wheels. Just something to consider.

Ok so if I have it right now , The only way to get wheels that come with Spice Red package I either have to get stingray or stingray Z51. or purchase wheels separately. Next question will Z51 wheels fit on GS ?

The offsets are different on the GS to account for the wider body and tires.
