I Ordered a Red Indoor Car Cover, Not Really Red?
 
Don’t get me wrong I’m absolutely thrilled to get my C8 after 10 1/2 months. I added this car cover to my order, “Premium indoor car cover in RED with embossed crossed flags logo and access panels”? What I got was this….not red and no access panels. Huh?

In the end it’s not a big deal because I moved from a state where I had to store the car for winter to the Endless Summer State….Florida 🌴 ☀️ 👍

First pic is the actual color the second it the GM visualizer.

Bait and switch? Those are two completely different products in my eyes.

Maybe, it's a supplier constraint? Or, possibly, a stock picking error. Exchange it for the correct one that you ordered.

You got scammed. I ordered the same red indoor cover with my car and got the second picture. You're right.....the color is off, and I don't see the 'Stingray' logos all over it. I can tell you, though, THAT cover was NOT supposed to have 'access panels'. :crazy:

A side note to this is your garage floor looks really good, actually the whole garage looks great !! Yeah not quite as deep red but it looks red to me .. hopefully you enjoy 👍

You said you got the OP's second picture version which doesn't have the logos. That's what made me think you didn't realize you had the logos on yours.

I'm not sure what you're looking at, but you can see by his SECOND picture there are logos all over it. THAT'S what I was saying I had. :confused:

Zymurgy 04-21-2022 06:14 PM

Sorry, my bad.

Broken Halo 04-21-2022 06:19 PM

BTW, by the looks of the preliminary released option list for '23 it looks like the red, indoor cover is no longer available. It's probably still available thru parts department though. :confused2:

It’s my dream 3 car garage just under 800 square feet! Completely insulated with a 24,000 BTU mini split which makes the garage completely cool in the Florida heat.

Right after we bought the house and before we moved in I had Southwest Florida’s largest commercial epoxy constructor put the floor in.

Well welcome to Florida!...I have the standard size 2 car garage ,with just my C8 in it..But I have lots more room to work on the C8 or my DD as the previous owner installed a garage wide car-port which lets me work outside and still stay out of the soon-to-be blazing Florida sun!...West coast, Charlotte county..
