I think the classic shape of the 911 looks better without a wing. The C4S is the best example of this with the wide rear fenders. I still like wings on a 911, but there's something about that uninterrupted sloping rear roofline that just looks amazing!
I've said the same thing before and I'll say it again.

C4S is the best shaped Carrera ever, with the wing down.

It is Motion at Rest.

Oh no... my car is being parked on wooden blocks... at an angle.

Arling, please detail my baby so it can be worthy enough to be back inside the showroom.

I actually like my stock wing, just because i can raise it up and down. yes, it is a small wing, but the versatility of having two wings, two looks is so cool to me.

ANYTHING is better than my driveway. Actually, driveways like that keep Porsche parts department in business, since you have to replace the lip every few months.

It's one of those driveways, where it is pretty much impossible not to scrape, uphill or downhill. But, at least it keeps it from being in a flood zone.

From that angle, I bet the hidden wheel was floating in midair the whole time. U can see how the frame is a bit warped.
