According to the equipment list on the 1LT the carbon fiber interior trim package is not available equipment.

Bummer, I know they said something about the base still incorporating the goodies like carbon fiber. I guess not for the interior though. :(

Performance seat is a completely different design. In fact some Corvette engineers have said it may be uncomfortable for some if they plan on using their Corvette for a daily driver.

I don't think the interior comes with carbon fiber on any, it's a package, either way the body pieces made from it are on all models. I'm actually not a huge fan of carbon fiber interior, it doesn't flow well with the pieces that aren't covered in it. But to each their own.

Wait a sec... so standard GT vs. Performance GT vs. Competition? I thought I read there are only 2 seat options... unless they meant the standard GT and then the optional 1) Performance and 2) Competition. I meant is the Moulin GT the same shape/configuration as the Performance GT? Like in the previous pic of that all black seat.

From what I've read there's two seat options GT/Competition. The shape, form, etc.. is the same on GT, just the material and what power options are on each seat is what changes.

Same here. Different materials/hyde/pattern/adjustments but exactly the same GT configuration & shape. And then the next remaining option is the Competition which is clearly different overall.

That's my understanding. I'm leaning towards Competition just for when I start tracking it, but the common sense side says they'll be too uncomfortable for cruising and not worth it since the GT are probably plenty track-ready, but they look so sweet.

Ehh I might have misunderstood you. Or I'm talking about the Competition seat actually. I don't know, I'm tired.

No, the Competition seats were in the show cars I'm pretty sure.
