I like the big subie wing cuz it reminds me of the action package 7th gen celicas.

No wing, no spoiler. And they better have an option to delete if that's the way it comes.

we'll see how the production version looks. probably no wing for me

i am really diggin the big celica style spoiler, despite it likely being a r.i.c.e. feature. Not a fan of the mk2 wing, and the g-sport is really wild. if they can fashion a nice attatched spoiler though, thatd be welcome

I'd rather drive the car first, both one with, and one without the spoiler. I'd like to see actual DATA as to if its functional before I make the desicion :)

Feel it before I decide. :D

I would rather not have a spoiler from the factory. If it gets to the point where I need one on the track, I can always get a carbon fiber wing later.

Andy 09-28-2011 08:44 PM

I'm going of the fact that I used to have an ST205 Celica GT-Four, and the difference between having the raiser blocks in was massivly noticable, it took a bit off the top end (Though I did use this occasionally, from around 160mph down to about 145 Mph). It felt so much less twitchy at the back end when cornering at high speed

I would only get a OEM spoiler, unless you KNOW FOR CERTAIN that much R&D and testing has gone into the spoiler your looking at!

On the ST205 having the spoiler in the higher position, gave, iirc 60kg downforce on the rear axle @ 62mph (100kph) this was documented by Toyota/TTE/TRD when in development/production

...if that is indeed going to be on the final model.

No oem spoiler for me. If its going to be an option, it'll probably overpriced, heavy and non-functional.

Tag another one for an aftermarket deck lip or a duckbill spoiler!
