Here's a thought...Why does the orange interior cost extra?? - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

HeldonSS · 12-18-2008, 06:42 PM

So.....we now see the Beige/Tan interior. OK....the orange interior is similar....BUT cost $500....??????? Why? I guess it is because the orange cows are in a union?!

fastfret7 · 12-18-2008, 06:49 PM

because they know you'll pay it. LOL but true!

TLSTWIN · 12-18-2008, 06:55 PM

I believe it has to do a lot with the fact, it isn't the "mass production" item. So it will need "special" attention to do the work, on every peice it effects. Which is a lot.

TJ91 · 12-18-2008, 07:13 PM

Because you also get the orange trim, thats probably a reason, i thought the exact same when i saw the beige, i was like motherfu..... but then i realized we get the orange piping, and red lighting on the outer gauge, it only costed me 575(Canadian) well worth it

josh1147 · 12-18-2008, 07:21 PM

Yep, what he said....cause they know a whole bunch of people will pay for it just because it's different. There is no "extra" work involved, come on. They have made 2-tone seats in numerous cars.

But go ahead and pay for it. GM needs your support!!

TJ91 · 12-18-2008, 07:23 PM

Well i like the fact that i paid for it, lol. You cant expect them to make verything choice and not any green in return, if its an added cost, less people will have it, therefore i feel a little more unique.

detroitboy · 12-18-2008, 07:37 PM

I don't think we're gonna be that unique...lots of them will be ordered. Hence, the original question still stands....why $500 more.

I'm going with the orange cows in a better union..

not much of a defense, but the IOM interior also has orange ABL, orange on the steering wheel, armrest, console, & shifter

the tan interior only has tan trim panels & seats

According to this guide, http://www.camaro5.com/forums/showthread.php?t=7787

Inferno Orange Interior Accent Trim Package **Note #3 at the bottom, Includes SS embroidery.

Wouldn't this mean all of the other leather options do not include the SS embroidery?

jiffy_jeremy · 12-18-2008, 10:15 PM

Never mind.

The IMO Interior "includes" the SS embroidery, along with all of the other SS leather options.

From the Camaro ordering work book:

Interior Accent Trim Package (W1H)
(Available on 2LT and 2SS)
Black interior with Inferno Orange accents on:
Leather-appointed front seating surfaces
Rear seating surfaces
Steering wheel
Shift knob
Door armrest
Center console
Instrument panel and door trim inserts
