We ordered Torch Red with Natural Dipped Tan. Mildly concerned with the glare advisory from GM, but we always wear polarized sunglasses in the car. So trusting this will mitigate the glare to an acceptable level. Time will tell.

I just ordered a Elkhart Lake Blue convertible with Natural Dipped interior yesterday.
I have not seen a picture of this combo but think it will look great! If anyone has seen a photo
of this combination please post, thanks.

But your polarized sun glasses will make it very hard to see and use the HUD. Per the owners manual.

why wouldn't they just make the top of the dash matte black and EVERYTHING else tan? Is it that hard to figure out?

I had Boxster with tan dash a number of years ago. The glare in the windshield from that tan dash was really bad. It bugged me every time I drove that car.
If you are concerned about it, I would definitely steer clear of it. I chose to avoid dipped and not even take a chance due to that bad experience.

Was going to get natural dipped. Then watched every YouTube video with them. ChevyDude did a good one about 3LT interiors that showed a terrible amount of glare. The final straw was one of the professional car reviewers who was given a car with natural dipped interior and he literally summarized that there were only two things wrong with the car - everything else was amazing - and that interior was one of them because the daytime glare was ridiculous. And he showed it. His parting words were “Fortunately you don’t have to get this interior and I wouldn’t”. That was it for me. Why buy a car where you may diminish your own driving experience just for aesthetics? Not worth the risk to me. I opted for the regular tan 3LT interior. Hope for you guys that already got it that these previews got it wrong. But I’m doubting it. Oh and polarized glasses help is the consensus, but you lose your HUD is also the consensus. Again, a big compromise. Enjoy your cars people! Soooonn!!!!

I'm going with T R and N D and will say that N D works with any available color.
