Default Just the Facts

43% had some flavor of Jet Black i.e. Jet Black Red Stitching etc. 25% Adrenaline Red. So 2/3s were traditional colors, the others divvied up the remainder.

Getting a Rapid Blue car, so the different "red" interiors are out. I don't like the gray color that they use for Sky Gray. If I was doing 3LT, I would love to get black with yellow stitching, but 3LT doesn't really feel worth it. So Jet Black it is for me.

Like mentioned earlier, i'd like to see what constitutes a black interior. Are any two-tone seat combinations counted as black? Obviously the cheapest option on any vehicle is going to be the most popular.

Preferentially, I was forced to go with Jet Black on my new C7. Reason being; I didn't want multi-colored interior. I still feel the same way about ordering a new C8.... Although, I'm liking the cool grey and sky blue interiors. Stay tuned.....

I had this same conundrum, however in my case I knew I wanted GT2 two-tone seats in whatever I ordered. After looking at the pricing after adding those options, it really wasnt much more just to go up to the 3LT and get the rarer strike yellow package.

Default Not many with my selected interior.

Just 3.3% have all black with Adrenaline red seats. (2021 numbers.)

Not sure if that % includes the red stitching option but mine has that, too.

No pics…get her at the Museum on Thursday, October 7.

Cheers!

Well there are many color combos and some are not allowed but folks order em anyway. I assume everyone is happy with what they picked, since all C8 are custom options just for their taste.
Torch Red and Natural Dipped for me.. I dislike black carpets because they show all the dirt / dust specks.

You can open the top and the windows and start the car and a/c from the key fob and then you have ventilated seats. Once you're moving it's no big deal.

only concern I have is black gets hot on a vert.

I don’t know how popular it is but I really like my two tone red and black interior.

If I were to order a C8, the black/red combo would be the color of my interior.

'22 vert with natural dipped interior. Yesterday, when I first sat in the car when taking delivery, the glare from the natural interior on the windshield was crazy bright. Had read on the Forum about this issue and others had recommended polarized sunglasses and that your brain will compensate. True on both counts - I put on my sunglasses and 75% of the glare went away. About ten minutes, into my drive home, I took off my polarized lenses and the glare didn't seem nearly as bad as my first impression. Drove the car today and didn't even notice or think about it. I love natural dipped.
