True, it seems a simple facelift, even with all the camo on it...

Its not going to be much different looks wise. From the pivture the most obvious cnagne is the side scoops and the hood. There probably is some sort of a grille there also. I saw a picture of the back in a magazine on the Coupe, not the Zo6 body style. Its prety much the same, but the distance between the glass and the end of the decklid is a bit smaller

Ya cant comment yet but as what i've seen in spy shots it looks just about the same as a C5 with shorter front and rear overhangs.

I heard base model was to have something like 400hp? anyone hear this?

I dont want a totaly different vette. Im happy with the current one (i guess im one of the few). But I think that they are going to get rid of the pupup headlights.

Most have concluded that there using padding in the rear to make it appear like a c5. But the overhangs are supposed to be less on the C6 than the C5. I've heard official pics may be released before the January Auto show when its officially unveiled. Bring-um on I can't wait!
