Yes, red would look awesome. I bought mine from the show room as well: dealer ordered with LT2 options and then added: MRC, AT, carbon fiber interior trim, sport exhaust, red B.C. - no Z51 pkg. though which is fine for all the driving I do. The LT3 pkg not worth the extra like you say - I hate the alcantra trim myself. I love the HUD as well and the front and rear cameras - so easy to park eh?Bought off the lot so I got what was on it.
Red calipers. Like you, I would have ordered yellow calipers but I now find the red really stand out and look good.
Car is an LT2 so nothing fancy inside except that it has all the LT3 options and Z51 package. I had read someplace that the LT3 package was not worth the money. Just take LT2 with options. Make sure you get HUD. greatest thing on the car. Lets you keep your eyes on the road.
