From the moment I saw Cacti Green, I said that is the next color I get. I have not seen it in person yet. The nearest dealer to me, around 30 miles away, has one.
What I can't get over is the Artemis interior. I appreciate the additional expansion of interior colors but I cannot see many people choosing that interior. Cacti Green exterior and Artermis interior are just too much green for my taste, I like the contrast. I would never do red on red or blue on blue ext/int combos. I get it will float someone's boat here and there. I can only see maybe white, ceramic matrix, and silver flare as the only other viable options for Artemis interior. I can see this interior color being in low-production numbers.
From what I have seen so far, natural dipped is the best color option for Cacti Green, and the bronze package makes it more striking.

I agree. Natural or SCG interior. Artemis seems to be a better fit for SWG, HSG, or something; where it leans more gray than green. I was briefly looking at Artemis on AYM, but I think it will also be too green.
I'd probably not go dipped natural. A splash of black here and there inside will match the CF on the bronze graphics, the tires, CF trim pieces, etc. I just wish we had a brown interior option--as that would work even better than a tan one.

Bronze package makes it look so good. Mine is the same as yours except no rear lip. People love the color in person.
Also I am having the stock rims powder coated something like an off black color and will put sticker tires on it for the summer month (not months lol) here in WA.

To Each Their Own. If I was buying a Z06 would get Red Mist with whatever interior, perhaps black but for an E-Ray love my choice. Don't care what folks select but here are some Pics of my Artemis and one I just found what GM says about it!
I Have GM Jake Logo Weather Floor Mats.

I saw one at the local IN-N-OUT the other day. I have to admit it looks better in person than in the photos I have seen but it's still a color I would not choose. We DID do the Corvette wave in passing...

Funny, have had my Cacti E-Ray with Artemis interior since it was delivered to my dealer in NE SC on February 28. Unlike some forum folks who were haters when I ordered a few months before everyone who sees it, likes the combo very much. At first women were 100% now about every male says the same!
