Ordering 2SS in Victory Red tomorrow - Interior advice needed - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

megancanada · 07-07-2009, 10:37 PM

Going to order my 2SS, MN6, with sunroof tommorrow in Victory Red... it was a tough decision between this or Rally Yellow... Have had two corvettes in red already and thought Yellow would be a good change but afraid I would loose interest after awhile in the yellow.

Wanted your advice and pictures of the Grey or Beige Leather interior to help me decide which one to choose. I found black to dark inside for my liking...

Your help please....

Thanks!

go with grey if its a darker grey

Have 2007 z71 Duramax with light grey and new jeans show in the light color leather seats so thats not good,never again would i get a light leather color.

I have imperial blue and black interior

Can't lose witgh either. I would go with beige because of the black carpet. Gives it more of an exotic look too.

the gray is light gray almost off-white, the headliner looks great and nice contrast with the light carpet and the black console etc, but the mats are also gray which our friend has the CGM with gray and she hates the carpet shows a lot of dirt even with only one month of driving, although she is just going to get black mats. we have black carpet . just my 0.02. have not seen the beige

I got the beige and I could not be happier with it. It gets almost as many compliments as the exterior of the car. I think people are really surprised to see the quality of the interior. Here's a couple pics. Note that I live in TX and it was EXTREMELY bright outside the day these pics were taken, so the beige looks very light. In truth it is a light shade of beige but these pics exaggerate it.

The car I'm driving now (2SS) has the grey interior. Lighter than the black mostly due to the headliner being the grey not black. Number 3 had the black cloth and it was noticeably darker.

IOM will not go. Period.

Beige? not for me and not for VR.

Red exterior with black leather interior is the best combination. But whatever suits your taste is the best for you. Beige looks nice new but beige starts to look like a really dirty and uncleaned white really quick.

HeatherR · 07-08-2009, 10:21 AM

Our VR 1SS had beige cloth interior and it was a very nice combination. I agree the black is a bit too dark. Gray or beige would look nice. I personally prefer the biege

You really can't go wrong (as long as you stay away from IOM!)

I have VR with black interior. It is very nice. I would say the grey would be the way to go if ya dont want black. I like how in the pics above the 2 tone, looks more sporty.

Brokinarrow · 07-08-2009, 10:51 AM

The beige interior provides a really nice contrast. I personally feel the grey just feels too bland, just screams rental to me for some reason. Everyone has their own tastes though, so I'm not tryin to flame anyone there. Of course by now I hope you've made your decision lol

Ordered the Victory Red with the beige interior..... now all I have to do is wait!!!

Thanks for all your replies.

My advice would be to get the IOM instead of Vic Red..It has a pearl coating on top of the metallic that makes it look red most of the time and only orange in bright sun..

If you do get Vic Red, then pick black for the interior..
