LOL, that is so great!!!

Hehe thanks! Even better, the exhaust fell off (and I been driving like that for a year), and I just rebuilt the shifter a few months ago when I lost 1st, 5th and reverse LOL.

I would like to see the Black for the interior a LOT darker than that.

Looks Grey to me.

I am getting Black on Black and send the Rims to get chromed.

If that's the black then I may try a different scheme.

Hopefully it's just the picture.

Disregard all of that. It was the gray after all.

The Red Camaro at NAIAS has a black interior. And the pictures do lighten it up a bit :(. Try to get a sense of depth from them...because it really is a good black.

No way black leather doesn't fade a bit anyways as time goes on. Maybe a slightly lighter shade holds its color longer

I'd wait to see a black interior in person before making a decision. Photos will really mess with the black levels based on lighting conditions.

For example, here's the black Camaro from the State Fair of Texas last year:

I was initially looking at this. This has to be the Gray. If not then just weird lighting, Really weird.

I'm a photographer so I have some experience with this....

I'll wager that is black. I'm nearly positive. Flash photography is a tricky thing as the light coming out of the flash is BRIGHT and instant. A flash was definitely used here as obvious from the reflection off the edge of the steering wheel. Leather is a semi reflective surface so a lot of that flashed light is thrown back at the camera which tried to make it's best guess as to what that color is through white balance. I know all that sounds kind of technical, but these photos are obviously just snap shots and not pro shots. Keep that in mind.

halos only come with the HID lights & we're still trying to get a definite answer on how to operate them

the RS package only includes

HID/halo headlights
tinted tail light lenses
20" Midnight Silver wheels
painted roof ditch moldings
SS rear spoiler (on LT models)

the body kit is the separate Ground Effects package (GFX)

The photo exif info says "Strobe return light detected". This is what the black interior will look like if you fire a flash at it while taking picture. The flash reflects off the shine in the leather and washes out the color. You can even see the effect of the flash on the sticker in the door jamb. Without a flash, you could probably read that sticker just fine and the interior would be appear black like it actually is.

Besides, the black interior matches Scott's tuxedo in this one:
