Why does a 924 and a 928 with no spoiler at the back make the car look like an ass? I saw a black 928 at the dealer with a spoiler, and I saw a 928 in a book without a spoiler, the car goes from a porsche to an AMC. I really like the 928 with a spoiler and no lines on the side...all other 928s look chinsy to me.

Lars, the 928 WAS an AMC. Sheeeesh.
Do I have to tell you everything?

Hey Larso,
If the rear wind deflector is so nice, why call it a spoiler? And no aerodynamic bafflegab retorts either!

I think we should all pull together and put those extra large, multi element rear wings on our cars like the ricers do! It's guaranteed to make the car faster since drag=speed. I need four so my wife's Camry doesn't feel left out.

| What's wrong with the wheels? I think they're the standard 185/70R14 ones. |

The wheels make the car look weird, I think...
The stock 924 wheels just made the car look dated/older, but that is only my opinion... |

My car is older/dated, why should it look like a new one?
That's why is like it.
IMHO, there's no problem with the stock wheels. |

well you could put 70s mazda wheels on it to make it even more dated if that's what you like...If we are going to talk bull let's talk bull!  |

Lets not even start on the colour;-)
BTW the i think?? the spoiler on the 924 reduces the drag coefficient from .36 to .33

Correct.. reduces air resistance and increases top speed by 3mph. The spoiler that is.
Think the car would look better with a set of spider web alloys.
Nice rare color.

| Correct me if I'm wrong, but don't spoilers always increase drag? |

No. Wings typically do. Spoilers help clean the flow of air.
