That's a functional splitter, and the angular fascia will make it more aerodynamic. I'm bet'cha the drag coefficient is gonna be an improvement. Might even see a ~30mpg V8 like the Corvette.

Just for the angular design changes, I like it.

I would agree. The DI in the LT1 is the main reason for its jump in rating. Assuming both are as slippery, we should see similar results.

It reminds me of the first 5th gen peeks, someone said the B pillar looked like it was stolen from a 1st gen Challenger

I understand a lot of the members are young, and that's ok. As long as they're not too hard headed to learn some muscle car history.

The 1st gen Challenger b pillar was stolen from the 1st gen Camaro

It's got to be photoshopped nonsense. Compare the real GM teaser pic to this new pic that nobody has a clue where the heck it came from. The GM teaser has no overbite and looks much better.

I don't know if it's photoshopped, it looks like it's just angled slightly different

Agreed. Which is exactly why I asked the source. Seems very different. TOO different.

The nose is the only difference I see unless someone can point out what else is different.
