Question Ducktail on the 3.8RS

I decided to change it up a little for the few days of winter I can get out in the RS. What do you think?

I like it, nice and subtle for when not on the track. Makes me really want an RS.

Brian - your car is just gorgeous!!! w/ & w/o the T-wing, but my vote would still be for the wing.

it looks like a sweet C4S!

great way to keep the car under the radar.

however you just cant hide behind that flash paint!

That blue paint is wing paint!

I love your RS!!

Am I the outlier in feeling that the car's blatantly missing something? Maybe I've drank too much porker kool-aid to recognize there's beauty beyond the weissach-approved...

Absolutely, effing love it!!! And then I noticed it's in my home town somewhere...

With the duck tail, you could practically get away with using an RS as a daily!

That looks awesome, I little more subtle for daily driving.
