as long as you don't mean red like the third gen Camaros! I could see the seem as the Infrano Orange, but take all of whats in orange and make it red! That would be great!

Red interiors are the best

They show so much less dirt than gray interiors, and yet, almost all cars these days have gray interiors...dumb

Probably because red interiors were a '70s/80's style disaster

A friend at work recently picked up an orange SS with orange accented interior and it looks great. I suppose a red car with red accents would also look good, but only on a red car and only bc its accented red, not an entire red interior.

GTO had really nice dark read leather seating, and red guages. I always loved the look.
I looked at some of the interior packages for the Mustang, and they have a really nice light brown leather seating surface.
I like the options on the 3 series as well. Red, orange, black and silver. The redis more like a maroon.

If they are balanced out with black they can look killer, all red starts looking like a house of ill repute.

Whatever...

Though I wouldn't entirely mind red carpet with black seats...or maybe seats kinda like those but with more black or charcoal...red carpet is the best...grey carpet is the absolute worst...and that's all there is on any car today...

I think the 70s/80s reference was because the car's interior was absolutely BATHED in red! Carpet, seats, door panels, center console, headliner... sometimes even the dash!

The reason I didn't order a '10 is because I couldn't get a white/red/red striped one. I would have settled with white leater too. Didn't have either option. So, no new Camaro for me, not that it's that big of a deal. Not real impressed with them at all other than the exterior look. If it would have weighed a lot less, I would have got one no matter what color.

I'll drive my white/white leather heads/cam Z28 M6 until I can find a good deal on an LS3 C6.

I too would rather they offered Red leather. I can see why they offered the inferno orange accent interior as it looks great with IOM, Black, CGM, and I bet white. But it would have been nice to have the red leather option.

My Fusion with red interior inserts.

My dream 2010 Camaro is black exterior with red stripes, and a red interior with black accents.

I curse GM for not offering this option!
