If anyone receives theirs with two tone interior please please post pics!! The AR previously posted helps a ton
What exterior and interior colors did you chose?

Thinking of getting the upgraded black car mats to somewhat breakup the look. I’m going to get the 3LT so that’s not an issue.

It’s HSG and Morello Red for next month’s allocation, that contrast will be epic and classic! Also thinking of edge red hash marks to tie it all in.
Not sure there is a C8 out there yet with this color combo.

Yes, looks cool in this photo. At night, with special lighting. Any C8 in any color might look just as good with this lighting.
You need to see it in normal daylight before you make a decision. After we saw Silver Flare Metallic in person, outside in daylight, that color was nixed.

According to my vin, my build should be made today 10/17. HSG, adrenaline red interior, edge red hash marks, edge red calipers, edge red engine cover. Once windows are tinted, the adrenaline red interior should calm down a little to better match the edge red accents for exterior viewing.

No pics I've seen do the color justice. But it looks great to me. Very happy with my GreyNewDeal.

Anyone in the Orlando area picking up a HSG car soon? I'd like to visit the dealer to look at the color in person.
