You're right. Everything out right now is only speculation. No one but actual GM employee's working on the project know exactly what is what.

Afterall, the Stingray is now using the aluminum frame that the Z06 and ZR1 used, but the base car weighs more than the old base C6 due to added content and safety equipment.

I do believe GM is trying to get the Camaro lighter than it was before. They've shown what lightening the Z/28 can do for performance. Car and Driver stated that the Z/28 is quicker than the Stingray for the Lightening Lap (coming out in October issue).
