Default C7 mule spotted

In the Oct 17 issue of Autoweek they have a picture of what looks like a C6 and they claim it's a mule C7.
C7 chassis with a C6 body on top. From what they saw they say that the wheelbase is longer and car is narrower than the C6 and it had 4 exhaust tips with the outer 2 being dummies (capped off). This article makes sense to me, there has to be some test mules out there the C7 is due out in 2013 as a2014 model.
So here we go

Talon90 who has some excellent knowledge about what is going on dispelled the rumor that what was seen was a C7 mule. But it does make for good magazine sales.
