Ford's already(obviously) ran the Nurburgring, VIR, Fontana, and Laguna Seca just to name a few, and methinks they're waiting until the ZL1 gets released and the rags review it over and over and over, before they drop the daisy-cutter bombshell that is the '13 Shelby GT500 on the until-then, chest-pumping GM upper-management.
Me personally, I'm trying to figure out if I can wait until a few months after the Shelby is released to buy the ZL1. Obviously right off the bat they're gonna be priced through the roof, but I'm thinking there's a chance that with all the hype transferring to the Shelby, and the car becomes available, one might be able to sneak in and out of a Chevy dealer with a ZL1, WITHOUT having to bend over and pick up the soap.

...hmmmm, as if one would not have to worry about dropping the soap in the Ford dealership shower? If there is a quick buck to be made, of course some businesses will tend to the Golden Goose as long as possible. The new GT500 with a 100 HP increase is going to be priced very hefty as well, you'll get what you pay for on both models...and HP thunder isn't going to diminish volume and sale one iota on the ZL1. I wouldn't bet anyone will be able to sneak out of a Chevy dealer on the 2012 model year with any deal other than MSRP. There will be no incentives, no discounts, no interest rate promotion. Possibly on a 2013 there may be some wiggle room.
