Adam is correct. The Z06 is available in all Corvette colours except white and Monterey Red. If you meant a white Z51 coupe, I vote for black guts.

(Assuming you meant Z51) A white exterior cries out for a red interior. THE classic combination. And remember, the "red" interior in a C6 is mostly black anyway...

I've got silver with red vert and I can't tell you the number of comments I've gotten on the red interior. Look at any dealers' inventory for silver cars and I can guarantee you, finding one with a red interior is rare indeed!

Think there might be a reason for this?

Has this dealer quoted you a price in the 50s, or the 70s?

I can't think of a good reason for it. I think red is the only color to go with in a silver Corvette. It beats the HELL out of titanium or cashmere in my opinion. Very nice and not bland.

White/Red...as long as you don't mind Black carpeting with the Red seats. I saw this combo in person on an '06 Z51 coupe - looked sweet.

And there were actually 600 Corvettes built in '53, all Polo White/Red interior/Black top. Only 300 were sold that year though. Just flexing my Corvette knowledge.
