The 12C is quadruple+ the price of the Corvette so not really fair to compare that way. The Corvette is still affordable in real world terms and the LS is an excellent engine. I expect the C7 to be a mind blowing performer and the looks are growing on me. I am sure it will look better in the flesh, particularly in darker colours. I am not a big Corvette fan (sans the 53' - 67' cars that had so much style and character, I would love a 1967 427/4 Speed but they command ridiculous money now) but appreciate the performance "bargain" it truly is compared to the competition.
