Blue interior
Can someone show me pictures of a color that looks good with the new light blue interior? I just saw the two tone blk and blue interior. I can't imagine a vette that would look good with that interior.

I never heard, nor seen a 2 tone black & blue interior.

I guess you could do grey with it.

I have a white TBDE with a navy top. Sometimes Twilight Blue photographs very differently according to the light...it is actually a little darker that what it photos...just my experience. Silver is also a great exterior color with TB.

This is how I would like to configure a new Grand Sport. It's just getting my head wrapped around the rather large increase in price compared to a standard 2LT White Vert with a Blue top. Maybe there will be a new color combo in '18 that gives us some blue, otherwise I'll probably bite the bullet in the fall.

Yes, that's it. I didn't know what it was called, I saw that car. The blue on the fenders looks good but that blue interior looks terrible. It looks better in the pictures.
By the way the dark blue looks great on the silver, grays and white.

I believe the "Tension Blue" only comes on the Collector's Edition Grand Sport, which is also only done in Watkins Glen Gray metallic, and they are only supposed to build 1000 of in total.

Well, that is the answer. Could not figure out why one of the dealers had several cars in inventory with that interior. One, maybe, but why several? Collectors edition ticks the box. Can believe some folks would have to get a rare feature and that would drive the dealer to have some in stock. Hmm, would it be rare then? Hmmm? Pat

Tension Blue could possibly find its way into the lineup for 2018, but I doubt it.
Stingrays, Grand Sports, Z06s are being offered with attractive discounts. Why not check, you may find a 3LT with a discount, which can make it desirable and a nice step up from a 2LT.

Take a look at my sticky post for the Collector's Edition, there is a registry that tries to keep up with the dealers that have these cars so you can go look at one in person hopefully near where you live.
