...NAPA Adrenalin Red GT2 seats. I've not seen this combination in any C8. Is it because it's a horrendous combo? Do the two colors clash? The combination looks great in the Configuration model. The natural NAPA just doesn't hit me well. My '20 Accelerate Yellow Coupe has the all black interior and I'm ready for something new. Ideas, comments please

A friend has a Red mist with the ttwo tone red and black seats. It looks good, but not for everyone. I personally do not like the all red interior but like the two tone seats. I have had the all black with red stitching and this one has 2lt with black and white stitching. I am on the fence on probably another Red Mist with maybe two tone tan seats or all black with red or yellow stitching.

Adrenaline red next to red mist is an odd color combo, having the black centers does tone it down a bit.
I applaud your desire to get away from an all black interior, it is the least desirable thing about my car.
You could always go with Sky Cool Gray.
And, if you go with a 3LT/LZ interior, we don't know yet what alternate color interiors they will have.

I've seen red dipped in person and red mist in person but not mixed. The interior is going to be a bit brighter and the exterior a bit darker than what you are seeing on build & buy, IMO. you can get a sense of it here https://www.corvetteblogger.com/imag...012021_115.jpg

My 23 Z06 is red mist with adrenaline red/ black two-tone. Red dipped would be a bit much.

I'm not a fan of red interiors. I've an antique that way I only leave because of originality.

Bad color combo in my opinion, and I think two-tone seats look goofy (or the opposite of classy)

My last HTC was a red mist with GT2 seats in natural. Looked really good to me, better in person than in the configurator.

If you’re not concerned with resale then go for it. Might be hard to find the next owner if not keeping it for a long time.

I don’t like Adrenalin Red and Red Mist together, opinions will vary. Ask a woman, my wife says all men are colorblind, lol. I have Black in my Red Mist HTC, I also like the new Dark Atmosphere with it.
Lots of pictures here with many different interior colors: https://www.corvetteforum.com/forums...or-thread.html

If that’s what you want get it and enjoy but if you are asking for my opinion I’d say no. It’s your money and it will be your car so get what YOU want and enjoy it.

Those GT3 Comp seats have quite a bit more black than the GT1 or GT2 seats in that color combo, so not so much red.
