Default 2010???

Does anyone know of any MECHANICAL changes to the 2010 Corvette? Not cosmetic or styling.

I've not seen any mechanical changes posted.......I think with their current cash flow situation, GM may very likely stand pat with the drive train..........some new colors, yes.....an LS4.....probably not...

Is there even going to be a 2010 model??? Vette is considered to be on Obama's chopping block, as well as a possible closing Of GM. God lets hope Corvette gets sold to some Euro car company with tons of Dough to keep it alive.
