I know that color is a personal choice, but I'm wondering how people felt about a brownstone interior and if you have it In your C7? If you have photos, that would be great. Thank you!
There is a very good reason why Brownstone was the only interior color choice with the 2014 Premiere Edition. It is simply outstanding. Here is a side-by-side comparison of Kalahari on the left and Brownstone on the right. Much more subtle, IMHO. Incidentally, I purchased the Premiere Edition (#219).
I was considering it when I ordered mine. I couldnt find one to see in person so I went with black. I think it matches nicely with LRG (lime rock green).
It would look great with a white car. I didn't think grey would look good with red but it does. It's surprising how colors now go together that never did. You'd have to be one who can step out of the box.

I attended the 2013 bash and saw the brownstone up close the first day. It reminded me of a brand new baseball glove that was similar to Kalahari but when oiled turned a luxurious darker brown, in this case brownstone. At the time I did not know what color the exterior would be but knew than and there my interior would be Brownstone. Turns out I got the Long Beach Red and Brownstone and with over 60K miles still love it.
Not for me.
When I was shopping with CarMax, one with that interior came up for sale. I put it in my favorites knowing I would never buy it though. I was just watching it.
It kept tumbling for a couple of months and finally sold at $36900, about 3k to 4k below similar cars on their site.
Hard color to sell. You just have to find the buyer that wants it or looking for it. It took them a minute while dropping the price ever so often.
My first in-person view of the C7 was a '14 Limerock Green and Brownstone - I planned to get that color combo after waiting a few years for the inevetable new model bugs to be addressed.
By the time I was ready to buy, I was disappointed and annoyed to learn it was only offered the first year.
No other color combo interested me as much, but I settled on WGG for my '17 GS.

I absolutely love my NRB/Brownstone combination! I am sorry, I can't stand the peanut butter err, Kalahari interior. To me, the darker brown and suede exudes a more luxurious feeling.
Brownstone?
