1- It's not a Corvette. Those are front engine cars. I find it hard to believe that GM would name it a Corvette. BIG marketing risk. More likely a Cadillac, which has been using Vette parts and platforms in mule fashion in it's development phase.
2- Whoever did this rendering at Hagerty failed miserably in his conception of the side intakes: lines are fluid all over but there he draws a squarish box. Nope. Try again.
Generally all mid engine cars look like that. It will not likely look dull like that. It will easily be at least as visually appealing as the 488 GTB and the 720S. And there may possibly be freaked out, low numbers, carbon fiber variants with exceptional looks at exceptional price.. I will look as good as our money.
600 hp pushrod V8 NA... let me get the hip waders out here because its getting mighty deep. Ain't no way in hell GM is going to have a 2v OHV V8 with a warranty and fully emissions compliant and laying down almost 100 hp/l . Yes they can make that kind of power when you don't give a damn about longevity (in the OE sense) or emissions. If GM could make that kind of power with a 2v OHV NA 6.2 you would have seen it already. Instead they are getting a bit more power with a supercharger. GM dumped the LS7 because it was already expensive to build and getting more power from the big mill while meeting durability and emissions targets made it even more so. This article smacks of some crap HorseshitKings.com would put out just to get the ad revenue.

It's a seven speed manual in the C7 not a six.
