The visualizer seems to do a very bad job with the Red Mist color compared to the photos from the NCM reveal.

The visualizer makes it look like a strawberry but that combo would probably look good with the actual color.

The grey seats are way too light in my opinion. Many people, even on this forum, mistakenly refer to them as white. I saw them in person on a Sebring Orange and with the perforations on the seat they honestly looked dirty at first glance. Two-tone red & black is probably going to look the best with the red mist exterior imo.

How did you get the headrests in SCG? When I do it, they’re black.

It does a bad job with all colors. I pay no attention to them. Anyway the ops actual combo will be very nice.

Wondering if the Red Mist is anything close to the 2002 Magnetic Red Metallic? I had a 2002 Mag Red and loved it. My current 2021 order is for ELB, but would change it to RM if it was close. Thanks in advance.

I love this Red Mist -- I did a 'vert with Natural Dipped -- same stripe as you.

We had the same color combo (maybe the same car?) at our reveal at Van Bortel Chevrolet & I formed the same opinion. The grey is definitely too light & the seats looked dirty. Loved the car overall & the Sebring Orange, but the grey seats were the only thing I didn't like.

That was a photo of a pre-production car from long ago. The production two-tone has black headrests.

I’d do the 2 tone grey seats. If you’re ever in Ohio buckeye fans will salute you!

The light headrest on the pre-production two-tone looks SO much better. For me, the whole idea behind going Sky Cool Grey is to lighten up the interior, which lends itself well to a convertible.

I’m not sure if I like how the stripe is broken up so much aft of the windshield. I’d have to see in person. Look at the rear view on the visualizer. The silver looks good with the red though.

I honestly believe the only way to go sky cool gray interior is with the two tone black combination. The seats will wear too fast in that light color.

The body color nacelles look really good in my opinion. If the SCG was as dark as your render looks, I would go that color, but the real color is too light for me.

Two tone gray/black GT2 seats, otherwise the seat will always look dirty.
