I don't care too much for black either, especially leather as it shows imperfections too much and soaks up the heat.
I would definitely go with Kalahari, red as a second choice.
ALL colors soak up the heat in direct sunlight - regardless.
Ok, I will try to remember that; black to stay cool.
Black, actually hides imperfections and stains. A black magic marker, and you're good to go. Red, Kalahari and Gray show imperfections AND stains.
Maybe if you are blind. Only thing that looks worst than a scuffed up black interior is one where someone has marked it up with a magic marker "trying" to make it look better.

There is a massive difference between light gray and black in regards to heat retention! My C5 had black seats and if I left it parked outside in the hot sun I could barely sit on the seats when wearing shorts, they were dangerously hot. With the light gray seats in my C6 I could leave the car in the hot sun all day long and when I first sat down on the seats in shorts they were hot but not uncomfortable or dangerous by any means.

You live in Canada and you're complaining about hot seats ?
Black seats heat up faster but they also cool off faster.
Here's my previous C6 Victory Red w/Gray interior. I liked the color combo, but I'll be honest the gray will show dirt quickly. So you will have to stay on top on the cleaning process. In the Torch Red C7 I like the two tone Black/Red combo. Just seems to tie the whole thing together. Good luck on your choice.
