What new interior color should Chevrolet add to C8?
According to everyone's favorite and most reliable source of Corvette information, GM Authority, among the "refresh" items for the C8 coming for 2024 will be introducing new interior color options. So far, since its introduction, C8 has seen the number of interior color options - not combinations and not including "white" on the still-can't-get 70th Anniversary pkg - shrink (buh-bye, Morello Red, we hardly knew ye).
So what will be added, and/or what would you like to see added?
I love my '22. I went with black interior for my HGM HTC and I love it, and everything else about the car. I have no options I pine for or wish I had chosen in my build. But...if GM made Kalahari and/or Brownstone interior available, I'd trade in my '22 and build my car over again identically but adding Kalahari or Brownstone, either of which would (IMO) look great with nearly every currently available paint color, including HGM.
Obviously Chevrolet offers one "brown" already. But so what? For 2022 Cadillac offers FOUR different brown/tans/beiges on the XT5 (Cirrus, Sedona, Kona, Maple Sugar). I'd love to see a darker brown, like a Kalahari or Brownstone, in my HGM HTC..

Yes, I know that these are in the same "brown/tan" family as natural, but...so what. For 2022 Cadillac offers FOUR different brown/tans on the XT5 (Cirrus, Sedona, Kona, Maple Sugar). I'd love to see Kalahari or Brownstone in my HGM HTC..

I’m with you on those colors! I have Natural Tan and other than internet pics at that time, I was unable to find one wi NT before I had placed my order. Was hoping it would have been darker (although not complaining) but would certainly prefer a darker shade.

I would've just liked blue stitching as an option with the black interior. Never understood why red and yellow were only stitching options unless you ordered the blue on blue interior.
A black/blue combo would be cool too. I'd love a black interior with the highlights being the darker of the two blues (twilight) in the tension/twilight interior.

But I want Kalahari, please, GM, if you're reading this...

SO GLAD I GOT MINE. Woulda just started blasting if I couldn't have gotten it.
Could be managed.
Could f with that.
So black and navy?
Not a fan of full two tone interiors as opposed to the seats but
As for me, I think an orange could be really nice. Only works on a few colors and all the shades though, would override on the rest. Especially with the coming Z06 orange calipers, if there isn't an option for interior and stitching like this at some point I'd be surprised.
That or we can just invert Morello red entirely (Has been done on a 3rd Gen Camaro)
If anyone has any other ideas I can mock them up, just tag me.

Kalahari for new. Bring back Morello Red. The most elegant interior color offered.
