Give the wing a purpose. Yummmm
(if not purposeful, I like the sports wing the best)

:eek: dannnnng that thing is about to fly!... I understand the functionality of the wing but could they have made it a little bit more sleek? Just my opinion

Sports package spoiler. Car looks unfinished without it in my opinion. That said, I would take the Z with no spoiler over the Nismo version or some of those large aftermarket options.

I have never seen a time attack car with a "sleek" wing, they look ridiculous but keep the a$$ end stuck to the pavement, so its a trade off. You wanna talk about ridiculous, look at Rado's time attack scion... Wings to da max!

i want my car to look like a race car and i don't believe there is a race car that doesn't have a wing. i am pretty sure all the formula 1 race cars have wings, all race cars at le mans have wings, etc.

true dat! but dammmmmmmm :iagree: I guess if you have a street car / track car then a slimmer and sleeker spoiler will look perfect... sport plus mines or even nismo.

BMW also would put a wing on their high end m3 series.

angels and fast cars have got to have wings :)

^lol... i do agree! looks b@#chin...

Red370 02-11-2010 04:39 PM

that looks classy, and its adjustable, which makes it better, you can tune it to perfection.

blackflag 02-11-2010 10:56 PM

Classy?

The best combination of looks and performance, in my opinion, is usually Ferrari and Corvette... and look at how often they use spoilers. They "spoil" the look of the car.

I mean, if it's strictly a track car, then looks aren't important. But the car is gorgeous with no spoiler.

I aggree.

The Fcar is a super car. Big difference! At 200 mph on the Autobahn it has a purpose, on a car that drives 30 MPH it's irrelevant. I see way too many honda's, etc. with wings the size of 747's jets. Ridiculous IMO. Kind of like a beautiful woman with way tooooo much makeup, or smothering ketchup on a gourmet dinner. Very trailer trash. Why mess with something that's already perfect.


I still like my Z without the rear spoiler. Very clean and tasty appearance. Not overstated.

The stock Z spoiler is nice, not my cup of tea, but not over done.

blackflag 02-12-2010 10:35 AM

Agreed, Rich.


And I never really liked the look of the F40.
