As always those that know aren't suppose to tell until the official unveiling. What they will say and we can repeat is it will definitely be a Camaro or a Corvette and looks like it likely will be unveiled opening day. Was also a short article on Indystar.com about it.

Indianapolis 500 pace car announcement next week
Cars that look like the Indianapolis 500’s pace car have been spotted in Indianapolis.
But as it turns out, a shipment of decaled 2012 Chevrolet Camaros now in Indianapolis will be used by the 500 Festival committee.
Indianapolis Motor Speedway spokesman Doug Boles said the official pace car will be announced next week.
“It’s either a Camaro or a Corvette,” he said, declining further comment.
The celebrity driver of the official pace car also still is to be announced. Last year, A.J. Foyt drove it after Donald Trump stepped aside amid controvery.
The 500 began the tradition of using a pace car to lead the field to the starting line. It has been traditional since 1936 that the race winner receives a pace car.
Fleets of Chevrolets will be used by IMS and IndyCar officials as well as celebrities and dignitaries during the month of May.
