Yellow seat belts and yellow calipers ? Spec'd the coupe as pictured. Wondering if the yellow calipers would work vs the red. Can't really get a good idea from the visualizer.

One last question. The base 1LT seats ...... Do they or do they not come ventilated/heated, with or w/o a power lumbar support. I can't find the link I'd saved showing the seat specs.
I took this at a dealer event a few months ago, Hope it helps!
It's intended to match the new Accelerate Yellow... being viewed on a monitor isn't ideal, but it is very close to the Accelerate Yellow. Maybe a shade darker? I'll see if I can get better pics at the dealer showing next week.

GT1 seat on 1LT trim level does not have power lumbar support or ventilated/heated. GT1 seat on 2LT trim level has both.

Thank you. I kind of figured as much. I simply can't justify the jump to a 2LT cost wise for a Corvette that will for the first time in my life, be a weekender.

Time is on my side .............
Simply musing out loud ...... So many combinations to choose from. At least I've settled on the exterior color and wheel choice. Sooooo ........ Now the hard part. The interior along with caliper color. The all black interior looks good. The red or gray as well. The '16 Z coupe had blk/gray. The '17 Z convertible is blk/red. The latter colors can be a pita to keep clean but do brighten up the cabin. Yellow calipers coordinate nicely with either the black or gray interiors. Red calipers coordinate nicely with the black, gray or red interiors. Decisions, decisions ......... And yes, I know I'm the one that ultimately has to make the decision. I am after all buying the car for myself. Gotta love being a married bachelor.

That is how I spec'd the original build. The yellow seat belts against the all black interior click. (no pun intended) The added advantage is the yellow belts drastically reduce being stopped for not wearing a seatbelt. I've already been through that twice here in TX recently.
I like the yellow calipers on ELB better than the red. But, I don't care for the yellow seat belts.
IMO... this combo or this combo with black calipers.
Personally I prefer the caliper to be less visible (black)... I know I'm in the minority with that opinion though
However... if you did black interior with yellow stitching, it would all tie in. But you'll have to step up to 3LT and that's getting into some serious coin just to pick up yellow stitching!

Actually, I concur. I prefer viewers look at the car as a whole rather than have the calipers become a target of fixation. Your point is well taken.
