Anyone have pictures of electric side mirrors vs regular. Does it even show on a black car?

The electric mirrors are the std ones on the S etc ... the Sport Design are the "V" mirrors ... they are the std on the GTS.

best look on the 3d configurator.

If you dont need/want to fold the mirrors, opt for the std Sport Design ones

I love questions like this. Tomato, tow-mah-toe. Who cares? It's your money and the only opinion at the end of the day that matters is yours. I can 100% guarantee you that after you take delivery and post pictures of your car, you will receive compliments and accolades on your new ride.

You already have a preference. It's your money - go for it.

IMO, that is the best reason to get the duck tail, so you won't have the black B-B-Q grill on the rear deck lid.

Looks great but you loose rear grill in black which is a special piece for the GTS. No ducktail.

Drove a lava orange GTS with a duck on Saturday. Simply sublime. The dealer also had a white one with the full wing. That was a little too much but the aero and duck on the lava was perfect. I'm in the minority apparently but I would have to order a duck.
