Two scoops and flares on the rear? I guess so.

If you're just talking about aesthetics, I still think there are enough to make it an improvement. However, if that's all you're concerned about, I think you're selling it short. The mechanicals of the car are what make it something extra special.
Rock on.

Overall it is a killer package, it looks aggressive and not overdone....

All I’m saying is I don’t see why GM went nutso about keeping the looks of the car a “secret”.
Look at all the cammo on the spy shots. There’s nothing to cover - it looks almost identical LOL
GM using influence to pull early unmasked pictures of websites...
Give me a break! It looks almost the same as any other C6. 
The specs are cool – yes. I can see a reason to try to keep those a secret until Jan.

The funny thing is, the mechanical specs are more under wraps than the appearance of the car.
Maybe that's because they probably really are special (and different) when compared to the body style, which is just a base C6 with some cosmetic add-ons -- just like you pointed out.

Nice. But to be honest, there really isn't THAT much new that hasn't been seen before. Still no shots of the rear, no profile shots, and all of the full-car shots have the camera down so low that you can't see past the front of the car very much.

Looks pretty badass so far, but I must admit that I am a tad underwhelmed by the exterior looks. After all the rumours about a coupe on steroids and your grandma being able to tell the difference, this isn't what I expected. I thought it would be a little more drastic than what we have here.
I agree that the mechanical improvements are spectacular and the car will be nothing short of amazing, I just hoped GM would go ***** to the wall and give us something really aggressive looking.
Oh well, there is always the aftermarket.

I'd hate to tell him, i'm guessing these pictures are now on thousands of computers. Once something gets on the net, there is no bringing it back. BTW, let us know if some guys from GM show up in suits
