Me either, but that is the only reason I could think to explain why the spoiler looks to be in that higher position. Perhaps it’s just an optical illusion, but it does look like a more aggressive AoA.

Agree the AoA seems similar to when the sunroof is open/tilted.

I stumbled upon a few threads where it appears that the different spoiler angles can be programmed/customized.

But I figure the Porsche engineers knew what they were doing (more than me anyway).

It's interesting, but I'm not interested in mucking.

Leading a quick pack at Laguna Seca. Finally broke into 1:39's, on 3 year old tires that have seen 6 track days and several road trips.

A few more pics that came in from Laguna Seca. Track had nice grip and weather was mid 70's for a perfect weekend.
