NOOOOOOO that car would be so sexy without it. It's got too much going on with the wing on there. Take that thing off there and give it to Guy

Notches are all about the "understated" look. A big-ass wing like that kinda ruins that effect. Plus it doesn't flow as well with the body lines of a notch as well as it does with an LX hatch or GT - that abrupt drop-off of the rear window followed by an equally abrupt up-turn with a big honkin' wing just reminds me too much of something like a first-gen Toyota MR2.

Again, if there were ground effects on there to go with it, like some Saleen bits with a matching front air dam, then it might work better. But even with the cowl hood, the whale tale just doesn't quite work, IMO.

Even the Saleen coupes looked horrible. Keep it clean.

As I always say, do what makes you happy. Each car is different, but looking at the "with and without" photos, I voted to keep it.

I vote either ditch it all together, or at least down size from that Vanilla Ice spoiler.

Flame suit on.

Keep the votes coming. When I first saw the car I liked the wing. After taking it off I also like the clean look. I had the same wing on my vert and I loved it but on the coupe I could go either way really.

Take the wing off and crack it in half over your knee and sky-hook it into a dumpster. The pic of the coupe with the wing on it looks like a bad photoshop. That isn't a good sign. Nice car though!

On coupes, go wingless and body-kit-less every time. Can't beat those clean stock lines.
