Default Red leather interior comparison pics 1LT vs 2LT vs 3LT

Could have been posted before. But since I already wrote this up and sent it to my Dad (who is considering which interior trim level to chose).. I figured I would post it again here.

Here are differences so you can see:

1LT interior (just color leather on the seats)



2LT interior (color leather on the seats, center console armrest, door inserts + HUD + heated/cooled seats)



3LT interior (everything above + color leather on the dash + color leather on full door + NAV included)

Good post!

The 2LT also gets you red stiching whereas the 1LT is gray.

Didnt know that. Nice catch!

Thanks for pointing it out. I'm probably going to go with the 2LT.

My only concern with the 3LT is the colored leather on the upper dash - pictures always show a reflection of this color in the windshield. That could be annoying.

I have the 3LT red interior and have had no issue with reflection due to the dash. Also no issue with HUD. I would definitely recommend the 3LT interior, the quality, look and feel is extraordinary.

Cheers!

Good to know. I'm going to wait a year or two (two if my wife has her way ).

I totally agree. If the budget will allow, go with the 3LT. If you don't, it'll look like you cheaped out, cause you have.

2LT for me. Just the right amount of red and I love the red stitching.

I might be the only one, but with Torch red, 2LT red leather is the way to go, the color red already pops out as is, so the 2LT with black dash looks like the best combo

Good info. There's also the approximately $4k diff. between the levels if anyone's counting. Be nice if the HUD was a separate option, like Nav. is.
Decisions, decisions.

Can you get a close up of the stitching of the top of the dash on the trim levels?

I'm thinking I may go with the 2LT because the red stitch everywhere was one of my favorite parts of my 4LT 2012... and then I thought, man, this would benefit from red seats!

Damn you GM, you went and answered my prayers!

Are the 1lt seats perforated - they don't look it from the pics.
Also anyone have any pics of CG with red interiors?

That was a great color combination on a C6, no reason to think it won't look even better on a C7

To get the red colored dash do you have to get the suede insert option?

They are not cooled seats, but ventilated seats.
