For sake of this discussion it is relevant since the power plant will be used in the new ZL1, but the ZL1 will have a 10 speed and isn't a Corvette so it's really just fun car talk at this point.
I will say this, I drove my Challenger around this weekend and after driving the Camaro for a few days I forget how much room the Challenger has. Totally different drive. My knees hit the door handle and almost hit the console in the Camaro and I'm only 5'10. In the Challenger it's like being in a lazy boy. I love that car. I did give the Camaro some serious beans on some twisties and it still surprises me how well it handles though. Way better than my 370Z. Blessed to have options.
YES!
Ford better do some serious panel reviews before making it a V6. The GT500 is an enthusiasts car and they will likely shoot themselves in the foot if they make it a V6 no matter how fast it is.

I sell these cars for a living (DCJR) and owned a 2014 RT for a few months.
After you drive/own a challenger its hard to get comfortable again in a camaro or a c7.
Not used to having my knees and elbows touch everything when sitting.
The weight penalty sucks but finally the aftermarket is making some headways.
EDIT: dont know if i care if its a ZL1.. this cars keeps me up at night
