Good News: Z06 interior samples will be at next month's April 24-26th National Corvette Museum Bash.
![]()
Per GM's 1.13.14 Dealer Fact Sheet: "Unique Z06 steering wheel, badging, interior color breakup, Dark Gray interior and Blue interior."
Just confirmed with Ryan Vaughan, GM Performance Vehicle Interior Design Manager, and lead designer of both the Z06 and StingRay's interiors, that he will be bringing Z06's interior samples to the Bash. Last year at the Bash, Ryan similarly brought a piece of the Kalahairi covered interior, something that helped many decide that that was their chosen interior color (and perhaps others' conversely deciding "no Kalahairi" for them).
If, as is rumored, Z06 orders will be able to be placed as early as the end of August, seeing these samples could be the only time some Z06 purchasers will be able to see these color samples for themselves before they place their order. Not suggesting that the samples won't be "see-able" elsewhere between now and ordering time, just that, like the StingRay which only made relatively few public appearances last year before September, the total number of Z06 see-able locations will similarly be relatively limited the next six months.
Other Bash events: Z06 Presentations by Tadge Juechter, Harlan Charles, Kirk Bennion, Ryan Vaughan and other key Z06 staff, presentation of the 2015 StingRay's, PDR presentation, and, for your visual pleasure, a Z06 and at least a couple of 2015 'Rays. Note: Reason why this thread was not similarly placed in the StingRay "discussions" section is that, as of now, we have no information as to whether the color or any other aspect of the 2015 StingRays' interior will be changed (save and except for the addition of PDR and internet capabilities).
