That's exactly the color combination I just purchased and it's also the Premier Edition. Is the top of the dash black or is that brown also? Do you have other photos you can share? What number out of 500 is yours? How do you like the Brownstone? Mine has not been delivered yet and I have to be honest and say I'm a little nervous about it and hope I like it.

i have lived with my M7 LRG/Brownstone now for 10 years. I still love it.
I looked at a 2015 M7 DSOM ZO6 with Brownstone. I regret not grabbing it. it is the only one i have ever seen.

Great to hear! I hope I like mine as much! I've never had a brown interior before in any car.

How about Laguna Blue?

I have a premiere 2014 Laguna blue with suede. Love the color with the blue. Photographs really do not do justice to how good the brownstone leather looks. Looks very rich. Like it much better than red or black. Light Gray gets dirty. Had a red interior on a corvette for 30 years and just looked cheap. The brownstone still looks new after 24k miles.

Congrats on buying a Premiere Edition!

Mine is #347 (it is in my signature).

What number is yours?

Top of dash is Brownstone. Like others have said, pics don't really do it justice.

I don't have another interior pic handy, but it looks just like the one in Post #8 above.

I am #065 delivered to Paul Masse dealership in RI in late Sept 13. Interestingly the original window sticker does not show a dealer. Says to deliver to GM Detroit Mi.

I believe that is because dealers could not order the PE cars. GM distributed the limited production (500 coupes/550 verts) to specific dealers based on certain criteria, historical Corvette sales volume being one of the main criteria.
