I'm guessing that the ducktail performs a little better than the liftable rear wing. Otherwise Porsche would allow the ducktail and not require the Sport Design front end. They offer the front only but not the rear only.

Great looking 911. The ducktail goes well on white.

Does anyone know if there is any aerodynamic improvement with the ducktail or is it really just for looks?
