Default Spice Red Package??

Just curious if there are many cars out there with the spice red package. Obviously it’s the interior color but the package includes a couple of other bits. Anyone know how I can find out how common it is? Thanks.

How about this one spotted at Carlisle - Corvette Racing Yellow ZR1 convertible with the Spice Package!

I know this is someone's baby but

Search is your friend. I have a set of the Motorsport accessory wheels that were part of the spice red package for sale if interested.

I believe the Spice Red Package only was available for 2016 and 2017 although the Spice Red interior has continued as an available color. The original package included package-specific wheels for the Stingray, Grand Sport and Z06. It also included Shark Gray vents (with Long Beach Red getting standard Carbon Flash) and darker “Addicted Red” brake calipers.

I have a 2016 Stingray Coupe, LBR with Spice Red Package and B92 CF hood stinger (bought the car used-although I like it very much, I would never pay $2K for that option). I have seen several LBR Spice Red Package cars, but not with that hood. I know that there 128 coupes built with that exterior/interior combination, and that there were 799 cars with B92, but I am unable to see how many were built with both. I wonder how rare that really is?

I recently bought a 2016 LBR with Spice Red pkg. It is unusual in the fact that it is a rpo code r7v (show car).
Also a Order Type: 90 - Special event used car (cvms use).
I bought the car from a dealer near Indianapolis, IN and was told they get a lot of dislay cars that were at the Indy 500.
This looks to be one of those cars. According to Carfax, it was sold to first owner as a new car with about 150 miles on it.
Today it has only 765 miles. One of 196 Stingray convertibles made.
M7, Z51 and 3LZ.

Have any of you guys with the spice red experienced any issues with the leather lifting? Just curious. I have a ‘17 Arctic White GS with SR package and love the color combo. The car developed a “flaw” on the passenger door panel where the leather got a wierd, circular wrinkle. Not sure exactly how to describe it. The door panel was replaced under warranty and all is good.

fixed it for ya.
beautiful car but there are NO RPO codes out there that make that car worth sitting. get out there and enjoy it. It isn't going up in value sitting around in our life times or probably your grandkids. There are about 135,000 C7s out there so far. Think about that.

the package cars are nice because they're rare than others. Nice to not be the same as the rest at the shows and meets.

ps. Mine is 1 of only 8 twilight blue design package Z06s ever produced as shark gray was only made with the packages for one year and there are more spice red design package cars than the one I have. I have the charts. theres a couple 1 of 1s on there pretty cool.

the black suede design package cara are the nicest imo. But I have a soft spot for mine (like you do for yours lol)

I know, I was trying to be polite, too - I know, it's different strokes for different folks and all, but, I kinda have to agree...
I think 'shadeshift" hit the nail on the head...

I've seen C5s and C6s in Millennial Yellow with the Torch Red and while not my cup of tea,
I just don't think the darker spice red and the lighter racing yellow works that well together...
But, that's just my opinion...

That looks good on a Long Beach Red. 765 miles? I have 76,500 on mine.

That LBR vert with the spice red pkg is one super looking vette and the chrome wheels really give it some pop.
