I would love an LS7 powered anything, but I'm not sure I would take the LS7 over the TT V6 only because its already boosted. I would bet it wont take the aftermarket long to make the TT car a very potent competitor.

Not hardly.
I'm thinking this LS7 rumor has its genesis in some of the mules GM cobbled together to test various configurations so they could answer the bosses when questioned behind closed doors.

The after market has already made the LS7 a potent competitor.......Sure they will be able to make more power out of that V6 than it does stock, but eventually it will become more expensive to get more power out of it, than you could easily squeeze from the LS7. GTR's come to mind.

Surprise Surprise
It really doesn't make financial sense for GM to offer two exceptionally powered engine platforms in this car. The ROI is short on these models anyway. The real money is churning out (and selling) high volume models where the economies of scale come into play. These special models are to more to give the entire brand a greater appeal in terms of marketing and brand recognition.
