beauty is in the eye of the beholder... besides the downforce effect the wing also house the air duct for the turbos cooling so it's actually more function then form

I do believe that wing adds some significant downforce. The CTR2 Sport has an even bigger one. CWay would not like it...

While the wing itself is not my cup of tea, the car as a complete package is BEAUTIFUL and I can see where the functionality of the wing comes in. I am definitely jealous.

Not a big fan of that RUF wing but all would quickly be forgiven if I owned what it's attached to. That is a magnificent performance car! RUF clearly employed the "form follows function" engineering approach. The entire wing is not only an aerodynamic aid but is an air intake as well. The upper element extends into (almost) clean airflow coming off the roof and flows through the struts to cool the intercoolers (I think). Below the wing is another massive air intake for the airbox.

You are a very lucky owner. More pictures please.
