Marc, I highly suggest you look at an actual C7 somewhere that has a A Red Interior. It will be the same with the C8. Otherwise A Red looks very close to the TR Exterior and Red Calipers shown here. Gauging colors on computer screens gives varying results..

Personally I like red interiors in sports cars depending on the exterior color. Five of my six Vettes have had red interiors.

Seems to me that Chevy likes to use cartoon shades of colors. Jessica Rabbit's dress red, Smurf blues... Just another reason I like Long Beach red, and jet black...

Go find a c7 with adrenaline red interior and see if you like it. My c7 is torch red with red interior like the picture posted above and i love it. On my c8 i'm going torch red with black interior and red stitching so it won't feel too similar to my current car.

Thus it will be a 3LT as black interior with red stitching. Try this configure below, also a 3LT, but a little toned down with all black seats, and still red stitches everywhere. An in between look.

I've had Adrenaline Re my last 2 C7's. I lov the look, depending on Ext color!

I had 2014 Cyerbgray stingray then 2015 Tiger shark gray!

I think it's sporty.

Don't think I'd like it with torch red but I'm not a fan of TR, seems to have orange tint in color.
Wish they made more of Ferrari type red,. Might get red if they did.

I had red interior with my cyber grey Z51 C7, I liked it. I do wish the red was more muted, in the C5 & C6 it looked more plastic than leather. C7 looked better, but I agree this picture is putting me on the fence. Solid red interior with exterior is way to busy for my eyes I need contrast. I would love red seat belts and black leather with read stitching but you need to get a 3lt.

That black and spice red is possibly the only car I've seen with all red interior where I thought "damn I'd rock that." Nicely done.

Closest I have come is black and red in an M Coupe years ago.

Loved the mod red interior of my C5 Z06. Have looked at several C6's and C7's with mixes of red. Not a fan. Also noticed lots of cracking and wrinkles in low miles C7's with the red interior. Maybe that will be resolved in the new car.

My Porsche Macan's top tier interior is red leather, no cracks or wrinkles 3-4 years in!

MarcAmoney , When I was ordering my 17 GS I had the same thought / question is this red too bright. My thinking in the end was I might get sick of the Adrenaline Red so I chose Spice Red Package. I was going 3LT anyway so I went in that direction. At C8 viewing I went to Friday at VanBortel I only got a chase to see small sample of Morelle Red. I do like the picture of two tone red and black that was posted above .I think the two tone calms down the bright red adds a sporty look to interior. Morello Red looks deeper red than the Spice Red but hard to tell with such a small sample and being indoors.Good luck deciding! Dave

I took this picture last week at a Cadillac Dealer on a display with bright fluorescence lighting above and it was labeled Morello Red. It looked good to me but appears to have a Satin to Flat surface tone. It is now a discontinued Cadillac Interior color. The picture below originally photographed much lighter thus I darkened it somewhat to how it appears to me about half way down. YOU MUST SEE IT IN PERSON TO DECIDE. I would never use it with a TR Ext.

3 LT gives you the option to select the two tone black/red interior with just the seats being red.

Looks classy IMHO.
