In my eyes if Chevy significantly increase the cost of the Vette, they will likely also increase the minimum price of the Camaro ($30k-$55k range) and then bring up a "sporty" car under that for the $23-$32k buyer. Probably yet another gussied up FWD hot hatch (like the market needs another one of those... boo.)

I agree with this 100%, except the part about hot hatches
I'd expect a Ford GT competitor up in the >$100k price range with the Corvette remaining exactly where it is than a mid-engined 'Vette. It would also be in the fat high end premium grand tourer market, 911 Turbo S, Aston Martin whatever, BMW i8/M6, Merc AMG GT/S coupe, Bentley, Rolls, Audi R8 etc.
But given lackluster success in mid range luxo-sporty cars in the past with Cadillac -V and Chevy SS I'd be surprised if it came to fruition.
