Pretty hard to hear something that’s so far behind you.

Ducktail looks the best to my eye...aerokit the worst. But to each their own!

Something about my 991.1 makes it looks like an accidental omission when it's up... Granted I can't see it when driving but now it bugs me...

I like the idea of the 991 duck tail, but it looks really thick at the base, not as elegant as the original 2.7RS one... Overall I like it a lot but it's pretty expensive for that it is, and from some angles it looks like a *massive* chunk of plastic... That's still my fallback plan... Is there anything like a more discrete spoiler, maybe aftermarket ? Something ducky that removes the actuated spoiler but looks thinner, or lets you leave the existing spoiler in place but enough lip that deployment is no longer needed? Probably not, but just thought I'd ask... Starting to save for the duck just in case ;-)

To duck or not to duck is right up there with PDK vs Manual.

I vote duck on this one.

It’s Club Blau, a custom color created by Porsche for the 60 GTS Club Coupes built to honor the 60th anniversary of Porsche Club of America. Supposedly, the color is exclusive to those 60 cars only. We’ll see.

If it's hard to hear stuff behind you, try the bathroom! It reverberates like you won't believe.
