Default 3LZ with carbon fiber/suede?

Any forum members with the 3LZ interior that have the competition seats, carbon fiber dash, carbon fiber steering wheel, and microfiber suede all throughout?

Post photos if you could. Would like to see them. Thanks in advance.

I did the same thing. I was looking for photos from members here and wanted to ask them about quality and how well the suede held up.

First 2 pics are mine. 3LZ Jet Black with suede inserts, comp seats, red stitch, carbon fiber dash, and red seat belts.

Third pic is one from chevy site of my exact interior.

Hard to get good photos. Looks amazing in person.

I have CF dash suede pillars and headliner.. Doubt I would like the steering wheel or seats in it.. I'm not a desk jockey and can barely wear white ... OK I'm a dirty guy.. OK are you happy now!!

But really I would think the dirt transfer to wheel and seats would hard to keep clean. I get in the shop and start working and forget I drove the car to the office/warehouse..

I purchased some of this. Does a fantastic job on the Alcantara and seat inserts.

This question has popped up a lot lately. Quality is great in my one year of ownership. I absolutely love the feeling of suede. On the steering wheel it gives you excellent grip while looking awesome and staying clean.

I had suede seats in my Mercedes before, 4 year lease and the seats looked brand new when I gave it back.

That interior is identical to mine, save for the red belts. In my mind, the red stitching really does it and adds a nice accent to the interior.

I believe the OP is talking about the new interior for 2018 which is actually a Gloss carbon fiber dash, carbon/suede steering wheel and suede everything else. My 2019 car has it but I got the GT seats for more comfort for my frame/passengers(car still in transit). The only cars I have seen with it are Carbon 65/ZR1 cars even though the ZR1 had the Sebring Orange edition.

Looks great with Arctic White. Going back and forth between this and Adrenaline Red. If buying Torch Red, this would be the must have interior IMO.

The suede in my seats, wheel, and shifter are the favorite part of my interior. Love the look and feel. Yes you have to be a cleaner person. But I am so not worried about that. Only thing I’m lacking is the cf

I have two tone interior with suede and CF dash. Love this combo but would have preferred the CF in gloss finish.

I have an '18 with the gloss carbon and sueded interior, black w/ red stitching. I love it compared to my '15 red 3lz - red seats were showing the signs of wear etc. Only have 600 miles on it but I am much happier.
Will post pictures tomorrow
