Did someone say Cobra? Just kidding.
I'm seriously looking at a 2018 ZL1 and don't have much faith in the next GT500 being priced in the same ballpark. Dealer markup is going to be insane.
I held onto my Cobra for so long, because "upgrades" didn't seem necessary. The ZL1 has a lot going for it and has me interested.
There isn't a supercharged V8 in Ford's current lineup.
The Camaro has benefited from the trickle down from the Corvette program, where Ford is going to trickle up.

As has been mentioned above by Martinjlm, Ford isn't benchmarking Camaro with the GT500, they will likely set their sights higher.
Look at Ford's history: 03 Cobra, first SC pony car when the Camaro/Firebird were left to die and nothing from Dodge, 500hp GT500 still no direct competition, then 662hp in 2012 going above ZR1 numbers...
A 725hp GT500 and 815hp GT500R would definitely get some attention.
