It looked more like a regular c6 Z06 with some rims. Not sure if thats it or not. It did look weird with all the black junk covering stuff up

All sorces I've read speculate it will come with a $100 large price tag.

Honestly, just for my taste, I'd rather have the LS7. There's just something about a 4-2-7. I hope they make a direct injection version of the LS7 when it gets phased out.
