Is that the production model? There's a lot of vents.
 
It almost looks like a Fiorano.

The all-new LT1 small-block V8 holds on to the same 6.2-liter displacement as the C6, here producing 450 horsepower and 450 pound-feet of torque backed by either a seven-speed manual or a six-speed paddleshift automatic. And although GM has yet to release the car's weight (we only know it won't be under 3,000 pounds as previously rumored), it's promising a better power-to-weight ratio than the Porsche 911 Carrera and Audi R8. In fact, Chevy pledges the C7 will run from 0-60 in less than four seconds and Z51 Performance Package examples will achieve cornering grip of over one g right out of the box. Further, 60-0 braking distances are said to be consistent with that of the outgoing Grand Sport and so are its lap times – impressive for a standard model.
 
3:20-3:35 or so of that vid ^ talking about them driving costs down with suppliers so they didn't have to raise pricing over the aluminum frame...
 
and just before 8 min - says that "if you can afford a c6, you'd be fine at acquiring a c7"... because they tried to keep the pricing close.
