Chevrolet designers spent countless hours determining which C8 Corvette exterior colors should be paired with the available interior trims. From this, we have created a list of recommended exterior and interior trim combinations that you can order for your car. The Corvette Ordering Guide includes a chart of these recommended colors, which we post below.
But sometimes you come across a non-standard combination that just suits you. Can you still order it even though it’s not recommended? The good news is, yes. For the most part, Chevrolet allows you to build your Corvette however you want. If you deviate from these recommended color combinations, you’ll need to use the “D30 Color Override” option, which adds an additional $695 to your order.
So you can order a car outside of the recommended combinations, but should you? We’ve seen the good, the bad, and the ugly when it comes to D30 overrides, and now you can too, thanks to this new video from our friend Jeff “Zipity” Duda of Atlantic City-based Ciocca Corvettes. Over the past few months, Jeff has been cataloging some of the D30 orders that have come through the dealership, and now you can try out some of these combinations for yourself on real cars versus the Chevy configurator.
Some of these examples are surprisingly good, while others just make us shake our heads. I have to say that one of my favorite D30 overrides is Red Mist with the Tension Blue/Twilight Blue interior. This was my “Reverse Superman” build on one of my E-Ray visualizations and it was a contender for a brief historical moment. Let us know what you like best and what makes you puke in the comments below!
