Wow! That doesn't look like a "base" interior whatsoever.

The Laguna Blue Z51 on your sight is the *****! Love to see a white Z51 with black wheels.

Thanks! Just a few more colors and you complete the set. If you weren't so far from Ann Arbor I'd take a trip down to see them in person.

Makes me think 1LT with gray leather wouldn't be a bad way to go. I could live without the heated/cooled seats and HUD for $4200 in savings.

Conceivably, the black C7 pictured here is a $52k car. That's one hell of a lot of sports car for $52k!

that's what im kinda thinking too. I don't know if I even want to look at a HUD with that fancy new dash there. But holy hell the base wheels are something ugly, I would end up blowing half my savings on new wheels.

I've been going back and forth on what to do. I have a self imposed budget, now, I'm thinking 1LT will be fine which opens OTHER doors (Z51/FE4) within the budget.

that gray interior looks quite good...nice to see that the 1LT is no longer restricted to an ebony-only interior.

Default Gray Is Beautiful: Ask Yourself However This Question

Given: The C7 gray is a beautiful interior color!
Given: The lighter the color of the interior, the more often you are going those to clean it; the more careful you will need to be while in it, and the more anything brought into the car can smudge or worse yet, stain it.

So please ask yourself this question before ordering it.

Am I the kind of person who in year three of ownership (not the first day, the first week, the first month, etc), who regularly keeps my car clean with leather cleaner and then leather treatment and also, again year three, am I very, very careful as to what I bring I to the car (e.g., no coffee, soda, food, or similar).

If you can honestly say yes to your totally respecting and maintaining your car, based on your recent past history with your cars, and that you continue to treat the interior with respect and love year and year, go for it, for I feel that the C7 interior is a gorgeous color. If you can't say that to yourself, suggest considering a darker interior color.

After a couple of years as my DD, that cars interior would look like the inside of Pearl Jams tour bus after I got through with it

And nothing really on the new Stingray is "base grade" other than the base wheels.

Yep, lot of car for $52K.

Or maybe everyone else is just over priced.

The "base" wheels are the only thing "base" and ugly about the C7.

Yep, the light grey interior does look good.
