I keep hearing all of this talk about losing 3 mph on top speed and I think "so what." Ok, if I were setting a car up to race on a track against other drivers I would be wanting to cut my weight and air drag by as much as possible, but on a street? Does anyone feel anymore of a rush from a measly 3 mph? Or does anybody just like bragging to another by saying... "yeah, my car does 123...". My car does 120 and that is all the faster that it needs to go unless of course, I raced the car for a living, and then I may be concerned, but since I don't I'm not. I do enjoy driving my car fast but it is done on a track where I pose no threat to an innocent pedestrain or motorist. I do not know what people are expecting to gain from making their car the fastest on the road... has anybody ever gotten anything from a street race other than another story to go tell to somebody in an attempt to gain more acceptance or respect when all street racing shows is a selfish lust for a sense of self worth? My girlfriend was killed by a street race gone bad in which one of the cars ended up in her bedroom from loss of control. I have no respect for street racers, and my opinion is that if you are going to race, take it to the track. People on these boards brag and boast all the time about whipping up on teenagers in their civics as if I care about hearing a story somebody probably just typed up in their boredom and cannot back up with any proof. Race legally against professionals (people with some experience) in front of a crowd and then I will be impressed. I think there is nothing wrong with racing as I myself do some stock car racing and also do a bit of dragging at the strip, but going overly fast on public roads is IMO just ignorant and shows a lack of respect for the other drivers. Not intended to insult or inflame anybody, I just needed to vent and voice my opinion too.
Oh, and back to the topic... the spoiler is purely cosmetic.... there really is not a performance gain, but I like the way mine looks with it on... that is one of the things that sold me on the car when I considered which one to buy at the dealer and was looking at the different models on the lot.
