We saw one at Carlisle and this is what we ordered in a Vert. Very glad they had it there because it was the last combination we thought we would go with. White looked awesome and the Brownstone made it look rich. The pics I took aren't that great but I'm sure some forum members have pics of that car.

I don't know but for me this Brownstone is about as exciting and looks like a work boot. Not for me.

I just do not understand why people take their perfectly good opinion, like "I don't like it", and feel the need to add something like that. Would it be OK to say I don't like white BECAUSE IT LOOKS LIKE AN OLD FRIGIDAIRE REFRIDGERATOR?

Since you asked for opinions...the C7 is drop-dead gorgeous in Arctic White. Brownstone just doesn't ring my bell, though, especially in a sports car. Arctic White + Adrenaline Red would be a great choice IMO.

Adrenaline Red is the wrong red, IMHO. Way too oversaturated and in-your-face. After a while it'll get fatiguing on the eyes. The red-black two-tone upholstery I had on my S2000 would work quite well in a AW C7...too bad Chevy doesn't offer anything like that classic look.
You don't have to go to an S2000, just bring back the C6 "Cobalt Red" that I have in my car.

I would go with the white also.....but with a Kalahari (sp?) or red interior. I don't care for that "suede" type interior either.....I'd go with the more conventional leather. Everybody has an opinion and a preference......
