Active spoiler on an 86
Just thought I'd post this, I had never seen this spoiler before. Not sure it does much but it sure is impressive:

Idk,it looks kinda weird. I would've been more impressed if it popped up like a Veyron's spoiler.

Extensive wind tunnel testing and airflow dynamic studies have determined it is most effective and provides the greatest amount of downforce when hard parked at the boba shop.
