No, I'd go with the plain embarrassing. It's nothing like the proper spoiler.

[agtlaw]

Looks "proper" to me. More of a wing than a spoiler.

What are you talking about

It's a factory race car, and is the 'proper' spoiler/wing

I'm afraid the gentlemen from Porsche AG are as prone to lack of taste as anybody. I don't care that its factory fitted. It's tasteless.

Its a racing car

Taste is irrelevant, function is all that matters

I couldnt agree more - very sad. The only reason I own a GT2 is because of race and rally cars like this, the 956, 962, 959 etc etc. Its called DNA. Reffering to that rear wing as tasteless is like moaning about the shape and colour of the space shuttle... Utter bks.

That is gorgeous. It looks better in the period photo, without the alloy plate over the bumper cut out.

That's a proper car, one with character and charisma.
